Fast delivery is getting heated

Today, Google is launching Shopping Express (in beta) for same-day delivery. They also bought BufferBox last November. Amazon has a similar Locker program, and of course Prime. Now Wal-Mart may get customers to deliver packages to online buyers.

The convenience economy just evolved a little further. Where today you might need to go shopping for tonight’s groceries, soon delivery may be near-enough to real-time that you can just grab groceries at your front door when you get home.
