Amaztype Visual Search Engine

It’s not long ago that we featured the Nintendo Wii inspired search engine and now we have another search engine that offers something a different – and it goes by the name of Amaztype.

Amaztype allows you to search Amazon for books relating to any search term you enter by cleverly reconstructing your initial search term from the covers of books that match the term: for instance if you type in ‘Fish’ Amaztype proceeds to build up the word ‘Fish’ using covers of books that relate to the topic of fish. Not only that but if you see an image of a cover that appeals to you Amaztype allows you to click and zoom in on that cover to gain further details with the option of linking through to the Amazon store for purchasing.
