Does anybody remember Webvan and what a collosal failure it was?
Too many overconfident 'smart' guys in one room.
The big mistakes they made, and many of the posts above, seem to point to why the Webvan model will likely never work everywhere. But, it's interesting what's come from their demise...Bezos has hired several of the principals involved in that failure, is learning from their mistakes, and is applying that to AmazonFresh.

While reading about this, one of the coolest things I found was the link/article on "Kiva", the warehouse automation company; absolutely fascinating.
