Founded by electronics wholesaler Matt Rutledge, it debuted on July 12, 2004. Woot's main website originally offered only one discounted product each day, often a piece of computer hardware or an electronic gadget. Other Woot sites offer daily deals for T-shirts, wine, children's items, and household goods. Two other sites offer various items. On June 30, 2010, Woot announced an agreement to be acquired by Amazon.
