There actually isn't a lot to say about Amaztype except that it is "cool and funky."
It is exactly like Amazon but it has different qualities which are attractive to the younger eye. The attractiveness of the website is all about the way it is presented. There are graphics on the homepage when you want to look at a particular all you do is type the name of it, then the results page is based like a collage of the different books and just by dragging the mouse over a book cover you directly find what the book contains and the version of the book it is. I think that it is a lot easier to use and navigate than the regular amazon websites!

1You have given a description, but what are the implications for such a tool? Is the end of simple text based search engines like Google dead? What type of search engines would be able to be designed to improve the way we search and accomodate our different styles of research.
You need to think in more depth around the system you are looking at? Make sure you add links as links – if you get what I mean…
