Downeaster Alexa
Today I stumbled across a stupid service from an Amazon.com subsidiar: Alexa Web Search. I think the premise is that they would apply the same technology that allows users to review and recommend related books & media, and then have people do that same thing for websites. I don’t know. I guess the idea itself is okay, but the site overall is just kind of stupid, cause the information is really pretty incomplete, and to me, therefore useless.
