half of this review is about photo-lens search and the online accounts settings page, both of which existed in the previous release. for what it's worth, my feelings about the photo lens are similar to the reviewer's: it's a really cool idea that makes a lot of sense, and validates the "web search" concept of the unity dash. unfortunately, in 12.10 at least it has a number of issues. the biggest for me stems from the fact that when you add an online account you get all of the services or none. in other words, if you want the dash to search your facebook photos, empathy (the im client) will do facebook chat. there's no way (that i've figured out) to have one on without the other. on the other hand, i'm not super-bothered by the amazon thing because i just uninstalled unity-lens-shopping. would be nice for them to have some UI for disabling individual lenses though.
