Google's Shopping Tool 'Froogle' Goes Primetime

After more than a year of beta-testing, Google has apparently brought
its shopping comparison search tool, Froogle, to prime time. Google
added the "Froogle" link to its main page Monday morning alongside
search options Images, Groups and News.

First introduced in December 2002, Froogle competes with other
shopping search engines including Shopping.com, Bizrate and Yahoo
Shopping.

What differentiates Froogle from other shopping services is its
breadth and depth. Froogle includes items from Internet storefronts,
such as TIAS.com, Yahoo! Stores and Vendio as well as auction sites
Yahoo Auctions and Bidville. Froogle does not display eBay listings,
but an eBay result shows up on the right side of Froogle search
results pages under "Sponsored Links."

Many shopping search engines charge merchants to have their items show
up in search results. In addition to crawling the Internet for
results, Froogle allows online merchants to supply data feeds directly
to Froogle to be included in search results - at no charge. As a
result, Froogle does a better job picking up listings for antiques and
collectibles.

A search for "McCoy Vase" on Shopping.com this morning netted only one
item, a print by McCoy. The same search on Yahoo Shopping does a
better job, and includes results from Yahoo Auctions and antiques
marketplaces: Yahoo Shopping picked up 497 items from 18 stores.
A search for "McCoy Vase" on Froogle came back with about 600
" confirmed" results out of 1,740 "total" results in a standard "List
View." Click on "Grid View," and a gallery-style page is displayed
with thumbnail photographs of the results, with product title, price
and store name underneath. Results can also be sorted by price (high
to low or low to high) or narrowed down by price range. The results
can also be grouped by store.

The question for merchants is whether consumers will use Froogle to
shop. Google likely hopes consumers will think of Froogle when
searching for antiques and collectibles and rare items, as well as
practicals like digital cameras.

The shopping service competition is one battle in the search engine
war, which continues unabated. Yahoo announced on Friday it had signed
a definitive agreement under which it will acquire European shopping
search engine, Kelkoo, for approximately $575 million. Yahoo also owns
Overture, which competes with Google. And rumors abound that Google
will file an IPO to take the company public.

Even before the first tip, you simply must get out a notebook, journal,
piece of paper, napkin...SOMETHING to write on to save your discoveries!
These tips will only help if you pursue them, so please either take a
moment to find writing tools NOW or print this out and promise
yourself to complete this exercise later. It may take you some
thinking time to get it done......and now....here are your tips.....

1. Find Your Joy Factor
Look at the whole of your life history. When did you experience the
most sustained period of Joy? What were you doing then? Where were
you? Who were you with? How did it feel?

2. What Are Your 3 Most Favorite things to do? If you had a free day
with NO commitments, where would you be found? What would you be
doing with whom?

3. In what area do you excel? (NO MODESTY ALLOWED HERE!)Truly,
what are you complimented on a lot? This could be ANYTHING.

4. What do you most want to be remembered for? If you were designing
your epitaph, what would you want it to say? (NOT what your Mom wants,
or your SPOUSE wants or your third cousin twice removed, but what do
YOU want your headstone to say?)

5. If you had a magic wand, what would you change about your life
TODAY? How would it look compared to how it looks now? Which
aspects of your life ARE changeable, both short term and long term?

6. How does your Joy factor overlap with your favorite things and
the areas in which you excel? Do the areas in which you excel bring
YOU joy, or are they really for someone else.....do you see which are
obvious matches, and which do not fit? Those that overlap, that
bring YOU the most Joy, are most likely the things that would bring
you into Passionate Living.

7. What is the first even teeny tiny step you can take to living
out your Passion as you have defined in #6? Take some time to
really think this one through.....concentrate and focus, and then
you will be able to start the next step...BUILDING YOUR ROADMAP.
