Amazon Invests in The Talk Market - Shopping Channel

Amazon announced today that they were investing in "The Talk Market". I hadn't heard of it before, but after checking it out, it seems pretty cool. It's like an online version of QVC, where businesses can upload product presentations/videos. It's obviously not as high quality as a QVC production, but from the videos I watched, they still seem pretty professional. Talk Market also has some video intros that you can download that will help your videos have a more professional appeal.

Users can go to the site and search/browse for products. This seems to be one of those sites to go to if you are looking for a gift for someone and you just can't figure out what to get. Browsing and watching videos could give you some help. Sample of the Electronics Listings. After doing a few searches, it doesn't look like they have much of a selection. With the help from Amazon, I am sure their catalog will grow.

How many products are on Talk Market... like 10. I couldn't find any relevant results when I searched.

Chill out. They just launched their beta this year. Give them time to build up.
