List of Website address

Is it really necessary to list "z.cn" under china? I don't really see the point considering we don't list "amazone.com" under France or "amzon.com" under USA. Lol lee lol (talk) 13:38, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No, z.cn should not be there. I removed it. --Frmorrison (talk) 14:31, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What is meant by "deliveries on the trunks of Audi cars"?

....... What is meant by "deliveries on the trunk of Audi cars"? as stated in this article, with the words "...In April 2015, Amazon started a partnership with Audi and DHL in order to get deliveries on the trunk of Audi cars..."

........ Could someone elaborate on that unusual wording? Possibly, is it meant that Amazon plans to transmit information content to wireless receivers installed in Audi brand automobiles?

........ Alternatively, will DHL trucks have the capability to wirelessly track and find a customer's Audi brand automobile, open the trunk, and deposit a shipment? ...while that Audi automobile is parked, of course! (Cargo transfers while driving down the road would probably not be worth the additional design complications. LOL!)
