Froogle

Have any of you guys heard of Froogle? As I posted elsewhere in the forums I'm looking for a decent webcam and I have been trying to find a decent place to search and compare products. Anyway I was searching on google when I saw a link that says Froogle. I wasn't too sure what it was so I clicked on it. I couldn't believe my luck. Froogle is a product search, search engine from google, which allows you to type in product names and it comes back with a huge list of different stores you can buy the product.

Has anyone else used it, it's great!!!

I tried Froogle as a seller in 2003 and thought it was a HUGE pain the arse! LOL :rolleyes: You have to upload your items with Excel (or similar) and the info had to be the right places, right order, right everything or Froogle rejected your FTP upload. Ugh! I'm sure by now they've worked things out!

I've never tried it as a buyer though.

Hey Red!

I like your nick by the way. Is that from a comic book?? It sounds familar.

Froogle belongs to Google and it's like an online shopping mall. You'll see the site is still in beta (for the last to years at least) so it's not yet perfected.

Oh right I didn't realise that as a seller you have to upload all of your products. I thought it would be similar to googe in the way a spider searches through your pages and picks out all the products your selling. I can see that being a bit of a pain.
