	The Fashionable Web Description: Just look at the favorite apparel-focused sites of frequent apparel buyersdefined by Ernst & Young as online shoppers who spent upwards of $600 on apparel online last year. JCPenney.com was tops in that group, with more than 20% of frequent apparel buyers naming it as one of their three favorite destinations for shopping on the web across all product categories. Spiegel was next, named as a favorite by 11% of shoppers, followed by QVC.com at 8%; and Gap.com, EddieBauer.com, LandsEnd.com and Sears.com, which all came in at around 7%. This isnt high fashion, Topp points out. It takes trend, buzz and a very sophisticated level of customer service to sell high fashion, including a point of view thats more than saying Im a funky customer. The technology online hasnt caught up to that yet. In my view, profiling (of customer preferences) online isnt where it needs to be to sell that kind of fashionbut it will be.

Not only is BestBuy.com providing music, it has contracted with online media provider NetRadio Corp. to provide 20 originally-programmed radio stations on the BestBuy.com site.

Advertising on the radio channels will promote Best Buy special offers.

	Making the Connection Description: The key to making data communication possible among various retail entities is the point-of-sale terminal. Always a linchpin in a retail operation, the point-of-sale terminal today has been elevated to star status. Retailers more and more are recognizing that the POS terminal is the link from the store to the outside world and many are upgrading its abilities, including adding web access. In fact, 75% of POS terminals today include web technology, says Greg Buzek, president of IHL Consulting Group, of Boynton Beach, Fla., which follows the retailer technology market. That high number, though, does not mean retailers are taking full advantage of the capability. Retailers are still trying to figure it out, Buzek says. In 2000, only about 10% of retailers were using the capabilities of the POS terminal. This year it will grow to 20% to 25%.

	On Irrational Pessimism Description: When Alan Greenspan testified before the House Banking Committee last month, he was asked why the Fed wasnt moving even faster to lower interest rates to jump-start a stalled economy. Still others questioned why Greenspan got on board the Bush tax cut train. Not long ago, such skepticism was unthinkable. The Fed Chairman, the closest thing the American economy has to a Deity, is hardly accustomed to being second-guessed.
	E-retailers may be hastening their own demise if they make the wrong fulfillment choice Description: One of the first costs to consider is the amount of capital invested in a fulfillment process. Retailers need to look at what cost structure they can support, Schatsky says. Do they have the resources and expertise to build out and operate an in-house fulfillment operation? Outsourcing is the way to manage costs and minimize capital investments.
