看《唐顿庄园》的时候,最羡慕的就是老爷太太小姐们起床后一拉铃就有仆人上来伺候,太任性了。亚马逊难道是受了启发?因为它最近推出了一个“速递按钮”。想要什么,一按就送到。
Dash Button is Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos' latest "I want it now" convenience stratagem. The user sets up the device to correspond to a certain product and sticks the device in a convenient place (say, inside the cabinet where paper towels are kept). When the supply runs low, the user can press the button to order more of that product. So far there are Dash buttons for coffee, detergent, razors, toilet paper, diapers, wipes, juice, dog food, trash bags, macaroni and cheese and napkins, among other items. When the button is pushed, the user receives a cellphone notification and can cancel the order within 30 minutes.
“速递按钮”是亚马逊创始人兼首席执行官杰夫·贝佐斯提出的“我现在就要”便利策略推出的最新服务。使用者把按钮和某种商品进行匹配,然后贴在一个方便的地方(比如放厕纸的柜子里)。当存货不足时,使用者按下按钮进行订购。目前,“速递按钮”可以订购咖啡、清洁剂、剃须刀、厕纸、纸尿裤、湿纸巾、果汁、狗粮、垃圾袋、奶酪通心粉和餐巾纸等。按下按钮后,使用者的手机会收到一条提示信息,可以在30分钟内取消订单。
Despite speculation that the Dash Button is an early April Fools' Day joke, Amazon spokeswoman Kinley Pearsall assured that it's real. The device is free, connects directly to Wi-Fi and is about the size of a pack of gum. It's currently available to Amazon Prime members by invitation only.
虽然有人怀疑“速递按钮”是亚马逊在愚人节前的恶搞,但该公司女发言人金莉·佩尔索保证,这东西是真的。“速递按钮”是免费的,可以直接连接无线网络,只有一包口香糖的大小。目前只有亚马逊高级会员收到邀请后可以申请得到。
