Google has optimized its Products Search feature for the upcoming Thanksgiving and Holiday season shopping spree. Google has made some improvements and brought new Gallery View mode, video product reviews, review summaries and store locations. Meant for those looking to buy stuff online, Google offers comparison of products and prices for shopping.
Google Product search has been optimized and tweaked a bit for the holiday season shopping. A new Gallery View shows larger thumbnails of products that help in checking differentiating between two products say Digital Cameras.
Before one buys a product like netbook, it's wise to check the reviews online. Now, reviews summaries are included in the product pages that will have summaries of reviews posted online and get the consolidated overview from it.
If you wish to see the product working like a laptop or cellphone, check out the video reviews. Google Product search also provides location of the stores nearby to the ZIP code, City or State entered in the search. Apparently, Product Search is in beta stage and shows only those located in U.S.
It would've been great if Google could optimize it for rest of the world as well. However, Google's Product Search is quite similar to Bing's Shopping search. Nonetheless, either of these comparison based search engines do help a user to narrow down to a specific stuff to buy online or from stores.
