- adventured 13y ago*That's what that was A9 failed to compete in general search, so Amazon turned it completely inward as a product search engine.
- taeric 13y agoYeah, I clicked around some after I posted and realized it was not as general purpose as I remembered it. I am not a search person, though, so wasn't how far removed from general it was. In particular, the visual search stuff seems even more impressive, honestly. Assuming it works. (I would guess that is a huge assumption.)
- brudgers 13y agoOne of my greatest hopes as a search user is that Amazon goes full force into general search - because as a retailer they will see me as a customer rather than a saleable datum.
