This is Michael and while browsing the internet I saw another blog about "Why Isn't Amazon Dominating Online Payments?" In fact this is the name of the blog. In this blog the person who was responsible for writing it posted some ideas on how to improve the site. One factor to improve the site is to become an OAuth Provider. This means that you can log into Amazon by using a different social media like Facebook. 

What do you think will be the advantages of linking your information on Amazon with your account with Facebook or Twitter? What could the disadvantages be?

Hello This is Michael and I want to discuss about some functions on payment systems I discovered on Amazon. A function I discovered was the Pay-phrase and this option for users allowed them to skip the input of payment information because their information was gathered by the memory of their last purchase. This seems to make the users to go through purchasing much faster. This is both good and bad in my opinion because anyone can get your information just by inputting the phrase you created. The good part of it is going through paying at a faster rate. I found this information while researching my paper. I believe that this link my help if you want Do you think this function helps users or endangers their information from hackers? Could their be another way?
