The new age of online grocery shopping

"Buying your groceries online? What is this, 1996?" That's what someone said to me recently when they found out I do the majority of my grocery shopping through the Internet -- yes, produce and all. Sure, online grocery shopping was one of those things that people envisioned to be common in "The Future" but many of the original efforts fizzled out during the first bursting of the dot-com bubble. Shopping for groceries and household items via the Internet is making a huge comeback, however, thanks in part to some major players who have taken it outside of the typical niche markets.
