Microsoft Tests New MSN Shopping Site
2 Comments
Microsoft has begun beta testing a new MSN Shopping portal, which serves as a price comparison engine for different online shops. The revamped site boasts 60 times the number of stores and five times the number of items, along with millions of new featured offers.
Although Microsoft is utilizing PriceGrabber.com for most of its shopping results, the company has increased the number of merchants it works with directly. The decision to work with a third party revolved around merchant ratings and reviews, Microsoft says, as the company did not want to start with a clean slate.
