Amazon.com was one of the first companies to try to sell products on the Internet. Jeft Bezos started the company. He was a successful vice-president of a company in New York. One day he had a vision of the future. He thought, “The World Wide Web is growing 2000 percent a year. It’s going to continue to grow. Shopping is going to move to the Internet. People are going to shop online. “ He quit his good job and drove across the country to Seattle, Washington. There he started an online bookstore called Amazom.com. Bezos had very little money. The company began in a garage, and at first there were very few customers (people who buy things).
