The "Best of" lists include the bestselling, 'most-wished-for' (not a PR phrase I particularly like) and favorite gift products in 2009.
The Bestsellers Archive is a new feature which allows customers to view historical bestsellers in Books, Kindle Books, MP3 Downloads, Movies & TV, Music, Video, Video Games and Video On Demand (for example, here are the Bestsellers in Kindle Books for 2009).
When there, you'll see that you can choose to see the bestseller lists for each topic for any year going back to 1995 by choosing the year from the pull-down box for 'Year'...
AN ASIDE: The NY Times also has a looking-back piece today, a chart of the last 10 years by topic with an image that represents the most unforgettable aspect of each of those years, at least for Phillip Niemeyer, the art director for the nostalgic piece, Picturing the Past 10 Years.

Eva Manolis, VP of Retail Customer Experience (an interesting title) adds that customers exploring the lists will likely find not only some of their favorites there but also items they haven't known about. Smart marketing :-)
Maybe of interest to readers: their Business Wire includes a list of Bestselling Products of 2009 (below), by total units sold -- I didn't find a page for this specific list at Amazon itself, so I've linked (above) to the overall 2009 page there. If anyone wants, I can later make a link to each dept from this list to speed up access to those bestseller2009 topic pages.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.
Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.
Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.
Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.
Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).
IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.
TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
