RE: UKNM: Kozmo.com -- The new Blockbuster

[sally krumholz]

No I don't think so. If a service is going to offer something as assinine

as delivering me videos and food that I can get from my corner Blockbuster

(quicker) and food (local digs), why shouldn't it offer me services for the

things I really don't have time for...LIKE picking up my cleaning &

delivering pet food. I live in NYC and schlepping a 10 Lb. bag of cat

litter and food up 5 flights of stairs after a long day of work, would be

ideal. The other services are cheaper to do on my own and are a phone call

away. An online valet service would be preferable to the obvious. That is

not servitude...it is service that is commercially viable. Look at the

number of Internet grocers (Peapod, NetGrocer & WebVan) over on this side

of the pond doing well.

Why not go the whole hog and get them to do your

cleaning and gardening as well! Actually, that's not

an online servICE, it's a servANT!


Have we just crossed the line, or is it just me?
