This is an interesting move from Amazon. They are adding a Amazon Blogs Widget, a new feature that lets you embed the latest blog posts from a selection of eight blogs writing about stuff that Amazon sells. If you’re an Associates member (ie got an account for their affiliate program) you can earn money on sales generated through the widget links.

Check it out, along with the new author stores, which is basically designed author product listings. Great for niche bloggers, and consumers as well I guess.
