Dear PlanetAll member,
As a member of the PlanetAll community, I wanted to let you know about
a new feature at Amazon.com called Purchase Circles. Purchase Circles
allow you to discover book, video, and music recommendations based on
what communities of people are reading, watching, and listening to.
** Amazon.com Purchase Circles **
Amazon.com Purchase Circles let you know what groups of people are
buying in your hometown, at your workplace, and at your alma
mater. There's a good chance that no matter what PlanetAll community
you belong to, there's a Purchase Circle for you. There are Purchase
Circles for colleges from Wellesley to UCLA, cities from New York to
Omaha, and thousands of companies and organizations. You'll have a lot
of fun exploring and comparing these lists--I did. To visit Amazon.com
Purchase Circles, just follow the link below:
http://www.amazon.com/community
Like PlanetAll, Amazon.com treats privacy very seriously. To read
about how Amazon.com protects your privacy and how Purchase Circles
are built, go to:

** $10 Amazon.com Gift Certificate **
I've included a $10 Amazon.com gift certificate in case you find an
item you'd like to buy while exploring Purchase Circles. Whether
you're looking for what they're reading at today's most successful
companies or just something enjoyable for yourself, it's a safe bet
Amazon.com will have something for you.
Your gift certificate claim code is P8JX-MNC3N8-9DK62V. Please
be sure to read the important instructions at the bottom of this
e-mail, and make sure you hurry--the offer expires October 4, 1999. To
visit Amazon.com, just follow the link below:
