Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Amazon-owned retail group Quidsi announced the launch of YoYo.com, a new toy e-commerce site, on September 20.
This new launch expands Quidsi's portfolio, which currently includes the successful nappy retail site Diapers.com, launched in 2005, and online drugstore Soap.com since 2010.
Influential tech site Techcrunch.com reports that YoYo.com claims to have a broader selection of toys than Amazon.com and will stock around 20,000 items at launch.
Users of YoYo will be able to narrow their search for toys into categories such as "eco-friendly," "no batteries required" or "award winning" as well as by gender and age suitability; however the site currently only ships to US addresses including Alaska and Hawaii.
The site is likely to be competing with parent company Amazon.com as well as other established online and brick and mortar retailers such as Toys R Us.
