I launched a new search engine last night: It's a quick visual search tool for finding books, DVDs, CDs, etc. It uses high resolution images pulled from the Amazon catalog. The interface is intentionally very simple. The goal is to make something as easy to use as Google images, but with stuff you can buy. I've been developing this for a few months now. It's still in beta, so you might run into some bugs. You'll need a decent screen resolution and a broadband connection to get the most out of it. Let me know what you think. Tip: Don't try searching for music in the books section! Change the dropdown menu to "music" first :) |

excellent man, ill be looking forward to using it, you should do something about that design tho - there is something about it that just screams WRONG. |

Excellent amazon.com image browser. I guess this is easier than going to Amazon? Possibly can this be extended to other online stores and all that? You can probably make some profit from this you know. |

That's really cool. I think the interface looks really nice and shiny, too. As already said, you may be able to make a lot of money from this. Do you plan to? Maybe ask Amazon first, though. Great work! |

nice lookin' site! I like the simplicity factor (maybe the main reason google did as well as it did in the beginning) I cannot really see a reason why I'd use this over going to amazon directly, but if you can make a buck off it, more power to you :) |
