thank you note..

Recently received this thank you note from a grad student in Baltimore, MD

"Thanks for creating booksmoothie. Before being told about booksmoothie, I would search for books on several websites before purchasing them. I would have several web browsers open at one time and it became a real hassle. Now, it has made my life easier by showing me all the prices at once in one page. Keep up the good work!"


We glad that that people find booksmoothie useful in saving time as well as money when using the site. We are always adding more features and enhancements to make it easier for your users to use this site. We plan on rolling out some major changes hopefully in the coming months. Keep your eyes open.....

OpenSearch Plugin

With the recent release of Firefox 2.0 and Internet Explorer 7.0, booksmoothie has released an OpenSearch compatible plug-in. This will allow users to access the booksmoothie search and pricing capabilities quickly without the need to directly come to the booksmoothie.com website.

We will try to post a demo showing the usage of plugin in the coming days and convenience that it offers.

You will require Firefox 2.0+ or IE 7.0+ for the plugin to work.

Welcome

We opened the doors to the site earlier today.

booksmoothie is a book price search engine website designed to make it easier for you to find books. It is a free service offered to the users of the website. By using the booksmoothie, you have the ablilty to save money when purchasing books from the local college bookstore or Barnes&Noble down the street. For example, a textbook at the college bookstore might cost 110 dollars. But by using booksmoothie, you can find it for 60 dollars from an online retailer, saving you 50 dollars. With that 50 dollars, you can spend it on more books, a night out on the town, or save it for that down payment on your future house.

By providing you with the information, you can make an informed decision in finding the best place to buy your books.
