Shoe Diva's Ruby Slipper Society

Pop…pop, pop…pop,pop,pop,pop!

Q)  What’s more fun than watching popcorn kernels pop?

A)  Watching shoe images fade in and out on a map of the USA.

Now appearing at a computer screen near you, Zappos presents Shoentertainment: a motion picture of a new kind.  Watch as images of shoes fade in and out across the country.  You’ll see who’s buying what where in real time: strappy sandals in southern California, proper pumps in Philly, and Weitzmans in Washington.

It’s addicting, especially during peak shopping hours.  Shoe Diva’s not a poet, but something came over her as she sat, mesmerized by the changing shoe scene.  Inspired, she wrote this little verse:

Her shoes are red,

His shoes are blue.

See something sweet?

We’ll ship them to you!

Then, she tried it.  Shoe Diva clicked on one of the shoe images that dotted the shoescape.  And, guess what?  Those clever folks at Zappos linked her right to the product page for the shoe she’d seen on the map.  A totally new way to find shoes.  Just say, “I’ll have what she’s having.” Click on the Zap Map and they can be yours, too!

Now, did you want those with or without butter?
