Amazon enhance search results
I have just noticed that the results of a browser book search now includes, where appropriate, a per book "Purchased" (little grey box) near the cover image
Previously this information was only available on the book's web page or when listing a series. I am using Amazon.co.uk ![]() |

I haven't seen it yet either, It would sure be nice for them to use some of the info they collect on me to MY benefit!

I saw it a couple of weeks ago on Amazon.com but then it disappeared again.

While they're making enhancements, I wish they would do something useful with the 'Quick Look' box on their home page. In 'Recommended for You in Kindle Books' they will have some random assortment of books. You hover over the cover and you can click Quick Look which opens but all it does is show the cover, stars, price and author. Is a synopsis too much to ask?

I see that this enhancement was withdrawn about Black Friday.
Perhaps to reduce server load for the holiday period? |
