Amazon's Search Engine Goes Live

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the everyone-is-getting-into-the-game dept.

fjordboy writes "John Battelle has posted a discussion and review of Amazon's new search engine: a9.com. From the article:"What makes this particularly noteworthy is that A9 is built quite literally on top of Google. In short, Amazon has taken the best of Google, and made it, to my mind, a lot better. Sound familiar? Yup, it's what Google did to Yahoo, Yahoo to Netscape...you get the picture." "

    Dear Senator Kerry,

    In spite of what you have said repeatedly in the past, all members of the US Armed Forces are NOT war criminals. Not most of them. Not some of them. In fact, I have NEVER encountered a serving or former member of the US military who is a war criminal.

    Of course, I was never around any members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War. So maybe that's why you've gotten such a skewed view of reality.

    Or, you're just a liar.

      what does this have to do with anything except your retarded notion that George Dubya is "one of us" and that Kerry is a bad person. Get over the past that happened almost 40yrs ago. Quit being a mindless twat.

      John Kerry (or rather his wife) own at least $36 million dollars worth of mansions. That's only in the US. They sold a mansion over in Italy to George Clooney a couple years ago, and haven't provided any information when questioned by the press about other foreign houses.

      He has a $700,000 boat.

      And he wants to be the "next black president".

    that G.W. Bush and Kerry were both members of the same occultic fraternity (Skull and Bones) at Yale, only two years apart? Bush claims that he never knew Kerry while at Yale, and Kerry claims that he knew Bush during that time. Who is lying, and why?
