Amazon.com is getting serious about personalized search and associated features..it is lauching a new version of its site A9.com. The service will offer users the ability to store and edit bookmarks on an A9.com central server computer, keep track of each link clicked on previous visits to a Web page, and even make personal “diary” notes on those pages for viewing on subsequent visits.
WSJ.com: It will also let users simultaneously search the Web, images, bookmarks, notes, the history of past sites visited, a movie-information database, the text of books that Amazon has digitized, and reference works such as an online dictionary. The results appear in columns that users can arrange on the screen.
B2.0: What Manber and company have built with A9 is more of a web information management interface, with search as its principle navigational tool.
