Remember when 'books' had...

...
Remember when 'books' had millions of books in the database..??

Check this count from the 'books' main page

View all Books (32316)


32 thousand. 32 thousand products.

H3ll, there has surely been more 'books' reviews published on individual products than that number.


As usual . . .something aint right. ...sigh...

Not doubting you but I was surprised when you stated 'millions.' That's a ton of input.

RE: Remember when 'books' had...

Guess I am lucky in Books, out of 61 reviews, only four are category unavailabe. Out of those 4, two are (now) out of date calendars.

Quick! Before it changes again!

As of 9:12 a.m. Pacific time, Books is up to 889,749. Also, my recent DVD review that was greyed out all day yesterday (and even fifteen minutes ago) is back in business.

Thanks to whoever fixed this!

Not millions of reviews . . .but products in the database ...as reflected by the number at the top of the category listings.

No, I am sure there are not 'millions' of book reviews published here.

But I am sure there was, at one time in the past, 'millions' of book products available for review.


@ Grace: Yup. I see the higher number now when I sign in. Perhaps that is reflected in thoughts elsewhere that media products (including 'books') are once again available.

*ouch..!!*

When he said 'ton of input' I assumed he meant 'reviews'.

But maybe not . . .too convoluted for me to cipher out.

Nicole is correct. I meant it as you said it.

Convoluted?...I would say "Perhaps", but I am so much more comfortable using the vocabulary I picked up from my kids as they were growing up so I'll answer with, "Whatever."
