The Hot List: August 2006

Web commerce is a pretty metric-driven animal. And no two companies are more into those stats than are Google and Amazon.com.

The latter generates a report of the most popular items that were purchased by people leaving this site. (The fact that people make the purchases is one of the ways Strobist.com covers the Diet Mountain Dew bills.)

Anyway, I thought you might be interested in seeing the most popular items, in order, that the group was reading. Or in the case of #3, stretching.

1. Light - Science and Magic, Second Edition: An Introduction to Photographic Lighting
2. Matters of Light & Depth
