Walt Mossberg – Apps Raise the iPad’s Aptitude for Real Work
Web-retailing giant eBay Inc. is fine-tuning its India strategy and investing more money as e-commerce soars in the country.
The San Jose, California, company is trying to steer Indian consumers toward buying high-margin products such as clothes and shoes — as is the trend among eBay shoppers in the West — rather than electronic gadgets and books, which are the most popular choices now but command lower profit margins and are less frequent purchases.
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
