Do you like how cheap Amazon’s prices are, but hate the fact that browsing is so dang hard? Personally, I still go to the bookstore to browse and see what’s new, even if I plan to buy online later. You may like cheap prices, but you enjoy browsing too. That’s why Chris Thiessen created Zoomii, where you can browse Amazon’s bookshelves in a format similar to browsing a bookstore while online. Chris Thiessen explains why he created the site,
Because I love bookstores. Spending afternoons wandering the shelves. Happening across great books I didn’t even know existed. But it’s an experience I never found online. Online bookstores are wonderful. They’ve got amazing prices, huge selections, and they’re open all the time. If you know exactly what you want, they’re perfect. But somehow I kept coming back to the bookstore just to browse. Zoomii is my attempt to bring online as much of the real bookstore experience as possible.
