	It`s all about the music at Urbn.com Description: Retaining a store’s image is tricky when moving online. While some merchants rushed to be first to sell goods via the web, others, such as hip fashion and home store Urban Outfitters, decided to wait. But while some waited because they wanted to make sure their online strategy was sound, that’s not what held back Urban Outfitters. It was waiting for another kind of sound: the sound of music.

	It`s not just Amazon vs. CDnow anymore; there`s a whole lotta shakin` online Description: Like the ever-shifting sounds of popular music, a year can be an eternity in the annals of e-commerce. It was only last summer that CDnow Inc. was battling it out for the top music spot on the Web with Music Boulevard, which was owned by N2K Inc. The two were locked in a slugfest for the best banner ad slots, the smoothest customer service and the snazziest promotions with up-and-coming artists.

	It`s survival of the fastest. As broadband grows, so will pressure to add multimedia apps Description: Even with today’s predominately slower connection speeds, features boosted by broadband are in hot demand for good reason. Clothier Lands’ End, for instance, more than doubled its Internet sales from $61 million to $138 million last year, after adding features that allow customers visiting its site to to fit clothing on virtual models, mix and match various styles and colors of Oxford cloth shirts, and shop the site by linking browsers with a friend or customer service representative. Lands’ End executives stop short of making a precise connection between these new features and the higher sales, yet they say some influence is certain. In e-mails praising the new features, customers have vowed to return to the site or make it it their exclusive online clothier.
	It`s the design, Stupid Description: James Carville, the brilliant political campaign strategist, became ensconced in American political folklore—and helped get Bill Clinton elected President in 1992—by hanging a sign at Clinton’s Little Rock campaign headquarters that read: “It’s the Economy, Stupid.” It was there to remind the campaign staff that American Presidential elections tend to be won and lost over the current state of the U.S. economy. So, while George the First was basking in high poll ratings following his victory in Iraq One, Carville had his eye trained on the nation’s eroding economic numbers, which he knew could put the Comeback Kid in the White House. It’s a funny thing that pocketbook issues trump all others in elections even though politicians, their staffers and the media often focus on everything else.
	Italy, Spain growing faster than UK in e-commerce Description: The United Kingdom is the leader in European e-commerce, with sales dwarfing those of its neighbors—and it’s projected to keep its lofty position for years to come, Forrester Research says in a new series of “eCommerce Forecast” reports.

	Its online ads go dark, and TechnoScout learns that web ads work Description: The great thing about online advertising is that marketers can see how many times consumers click on ads and how much time they spend viewing them.

	It’s backroom stuff, but fulfillment processes should take center stage Description: A well-executed marketing campaign and a snazzy web site might initially draw shoppers to an online retailer’s site, and even convince them to buy.
