This gave me a delivery date of "Mar 19" and an order status as "Cancelled",  , but I'm pretty sure that's nothing to do with using the link.

The money's waiting to be transferred from my bank, so the order does seem to have gone through.

Apologies for the waffle - I can report on progress if anybody's a little wary of ordering this way.

1. We send you to Amazon, but with WHO's new 'Affiliate Link' tagged on the end. 
2. This signifies to Amazon you went there because of WHO. 
3. If you then buy something having been sent there by WHO, Amazon give a royalty payment to the WHO account against whatever gets bought by you for next 24 hours (unless you follow someone else's tagged link in the meantime).

The goal is for this to self fund in the future.

There'll be some ads that help (hopefully unobtrusive), and if we can ask people who are going to shop at Amazon anyway to get to Amazon by the bar at the top (just to do the initial search) it means a cut of the Amazon profits will come to WHO instead of all going to Amazon and help pay for the site.

A subscription model ends up being a management overhead as well as a barrier for some so the intention is not to directly charge (paying for Vexed to call me a 'know nothing c**t' might seem counter intuitive after all!).
