New Amazon portal for ordering through neo
A commenter has kindly called it to my attention that my Amazon link symbol/ad that used to appear on the right sidebar (or towards the bottom on cellphone screens) is no longer appearing. Apparently, widgets like that (that’s what that sort of symbol is called) have been discontinued. When this occurred I’m not sure, but it seems to be connected to some huge overhaul in how Amazon wants sites to handle links – something of which I was blissfully unaware till now.
So after doing some research at Amazon about the new system, I’ve created an alternative method here. For convenience, I’ve also placed a link on the sidebar, and you can click on that link and order. I’ll get a commission that way, and you won’t have to pay any more than the ordinary price. Or just click on this link and order, and I think that should work. This is the method to use until I do some more research and find out if there’s some symbol I can put in the sidebar to replace ye olde widget.
You can find this post again by going to the category on the right sidebar called “Amazon orders.” Thanks very much!

OK. I just ordered some Moleskine notebooks. I clicked your portal link and went through the usual procedure.
I was not informed of any commission for you. So I don’t know if it worked. I don’t know if you can tell.
The order: January 4, 2024 TOTAL $23.62
Happy New Year!
I love Moleskine products. They are pricey, but given the number of personal hours I put into filling one, it’s insignificant.
Though Moleskine conveys the impression of going back to the glory days of Parisian writers and artists — supposedly Hemingway and Picasso used Moleskine — today’s Moleskine company started in 1997.
ChatGPT tells me:
________________________________
The term “Moleskine” indeed has a connection to a type of material. The name was chosen for its origins in French, initially referring to a hard-wearing cotton material with a brushed surface, reminiscent of a mole’s skin.
The new link in the sidebar worked for me. Thanks!
