Amazon associates links (warnin’)
As in previous years, let me warn unwary readers that the links to Amazon.com and Amazon.fr found on this blog are actually susceptible to earn me a monetary gain [from 4% to 7%] if a purchase is made in the 24 hours following the entry on Amazon through this link, thanks to the “Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com/fr“. As with last year, most of the items purchased through the links and contributing to my bookoholic addiction are rather unrelated with the purpose of the ‘Og, but, as already mentioned , anything can happen within 24 hours! Here are the weirdest ones:
- Toy Vault 12″ Cthulhu Plush Toy and Pokemon Pillow
- Stewart’s Pro-Treat 21 ounce Tub Freeze Dried Dog Treats, Beef Liver
- ten copies of Hp Compaq Evo N610v Ac Adapter 0mAh
- Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser
- Nile Spice Lentil Soup
- ten copies of Donald in Mathmagic Land
plus of course the books I actually reviewed along the past months, positively or negatively… Like seven copies of Error and Inference. And a dozen of R for dummies. And many other books on Bayesian statistics and R programming. Thanks!

I don’t think you’re meant to use affiliate marketing on wordpress, are you?

Amazon is an exception: See there: “There are exceptions to this policy. Amazon.com and other select affiliate links are permitted so long as they are not the primary content of the blog in question. Other exceptions are made on a case-by-case basis.”

Ah cool, if I didn’t hate Amazon so much I’d be tempted to try it!

Hence my warning, if you do not like Amazon, stay away from those links!
