Best Reading of the Day - Entry 0186 Retail Ideas, 3D Printing, Mobile, & Omnichannel

A slew of stories came out late yesterday that caught my eye, and one from early this month I missed.  All are worthy of your attention.

First up is a good one from Stores magazine on NRF.com titled "20 Ideas Worth Stealing".

Next is a fine article on the anticipated impact of 3D printing, along with some of what we are seeing already.  Did you know Amazon has a 3D printing area you can order from?

Mobile Commerce Daily has 2 contradicting articles, as they point out, and both are worth reading:

The first article takes a stand against focusing on mobile conversions:

The competing article makes the counterpoint:

Finally is a good article on Mobile and Omnichannel:

Happy Reading,
