    IN SHOPS across the United States, including the empty malls of Georgia and the "not too crazy" crowds at struggling J Crew, the relative calm that accompanied Black Friday shopping this year belied a frenzy for deals - many of them on the Web.

    EBay boasted that it was selling two hoverboards, the "it" item of the season, every minute. Wal-Mart said that it had sold so many movies that it would take close to 3,000 years to watch all of them - many of its sales were online.
