U.S. Online Holiday Sales Projections: 60 Billion USD This Year

We have spotted some interesting ecommerce stats and some stats on last year's black friday sales. We spotted this today:

"Forrester is estimating that U.S. online holiday sales will grow 15 percent this year to nearly $60 billion. The study reports that this increase will take place because of the increase in consumer-use of tablet computers for shopping combined with a growth in online holiday deals."
