The GooglePlex Continues to Grow

Announcing Froogle!

"New, from Google: Froogle! 'Froogle is a new service from Google that makes it easy to find information about products for sale online. By focusing entirely on product search, Froogle applies the power of Google's search technology to a very specific task: locating stores that sell the item you want to find and pointing you directly to the place where you can make a purchase.' " [Google Weblog]

I guess it's kind of like the Google Strip Mall, with every online store as a retailer, although I still prefer PriceGrabber's value-added services (like sorting by price and the ability to determine shipping costs, all on one page).
