| More Resources Good read.... But I still think consumer confidence could be improved a whole lot more, particuarly when places like CD Universe and Yahoo are in the news having their credit card databases hacked.. And so many sites still vulnerable to basic SQL injection attacks... One of the worst things about the web (also the best thing) is that their is no standards endorcement...

Check out http://www.consumberwebwatch.com Good news website for this stuff. http://www.hodgestephens.com also not a bad page for checking out the myths of online shopping. |
