I think Amazon is adding the language parameter. We do not force a language on outgoing links. Worth stripping on our end, though. Thanks for the feedback.

Amazon's policies changed in both China and Japan. This cut us off from the product data in those countries.

Comment #24784923
An awful lot of my decision making in the last ~13 years has included the question: what if the Camels don't exist tomorrow? Which isn't particularly unusual for a business, but it…

Thank you to everyone who uses our website. We are fortunate to have been able to run it for so long. Edit: Camel+YC fact: we pitched to YC early on, but weren't ready to give up o…

Camel creator here. This is, for now, only in the EU. We are still tracking prices in US/CA/AU. The return of EU tracking is currently uncertain. After the crisis is over, we don't…

We bought 14 of them, plus a RAID card.

We applied to YC in 2008, I think, but weren't ready to commit to it fulltime. Then we did just that in 2009.

We did indeed live tweet it. Just wanted to keep our users aware of our movements, and avoid the "camel has died forever" fears.

Last I checked, just one AWS database instance would cost us $20k+/year if we pre-paid for a reserved instance, and that doesn't include all the usage-based fees (storage, iops). A…
