* [[Timeline of Amazon]] (expansion):
** Vipul: Stock price chart?✔
** Vipul: For some rows, adding a bit more "forward-looking" information on the eventual importance of the development would be nice. Example rows where this would help: introduction of Free Super Saver Shipping✔, introduction of Amazon Prime✔, launch of the Kindle✔, launch of Mechanical Turk✔, launch of Amazon EC2 / Amazon Web Services✔, and Jeff Bezos buying the Washington Post✔ (this could be tied to later criticisms by Trump of the Washington Post being a newspaper peddling Amazon's interests). Basically with that done, it will be easier later to trim the timeline and move further developments into smaller timelines; also even until then, having initial events include more of a forward-looking perspective makes the timeline more valuable.
*** Sebastian: I'm adding more rows to give more perspective of the evolution of these service/product(s).
*** Sebastian: I added a new column in order to sort by service/product/subsidiary, thus facilitating sub-timelines within the full timeline.
** Vipul: It might be worth adding a row about Bezos's divorce with his wife MacKenzie Scott, and her getting 25% of his Amazon shares (though voting rights remained with Jeff Bezos). See for instance [https://marker.medium.com/the-inside-story-of-mackenzie-scott-the-mysterious-60-billion-dollar-woman-21952a3dc811 this].✔
** Vipul: For Amazon's very early history, it would be good to include a longer list of co-founders and early supporters (for instance, Jeff's wife MacKenzie may have played a key role in the early years; I'm not sure). If the information is hard to dig up, though, you can skip it.✔
