frugal google

Google has a new service (in Beta) on their website called Froogle (a Google pun on 'frugal') that allows you to find information about products on sale online. Merchants interested in having their catalogues spidered and indexed and served to billions of Google users can avail of this service free of cost. Seems like a nice idea, and, true to Google tradition, bereft of evident (note: evident/apparent) capitalist underpinnings (aka betraying a "sell-out"). {link courtesy: james}
