Google Catalogs

Kevin Kelly has discovered Google’s latest new beta project, Google Catalogs. He describes it quite well:

“Google has scanned in the pages of hundreds of mail order catalogs. This means you can search for anything you can think of and Google will bring up a picture of the item on the actual catalog page. In my experience browsing these scans turns out to be better and faster than scrolling through a company’s website. Because catalog pages are generally better designed than web pages, they are more informative. And because you can keyword search for items, it’s superior to the actual paper catalog.”

Add this to your list of places to search when researching that next purchase.
