The Google Wave AmazonBot just received a tiny update adding support for querying a single Amazon.com department e.g Electronics or Software. Anyone who has spent any time shopping for items on Amazon can agree there is too much good stuff. We realized that as convenient as it is to carry a conversation on Google Wave with the AmazonBot running in the background, the results may be too scattered. A simple query for ‘iPhone’ may return results from Amazon Books, Electronics, or Wireless. Now you can trigger a query for results from a single department both inside of a conversation or from the gadget itself.

With AmazonBot added to your Wave, the following will run a standard query on Amazon.com:

amazon: keywords

To narrow search results down, use the following:

amazon-[department]: keywords

Replace [department] with any one of the following:

  • Apparel
  • Baby
  • Beauty
  • Books
  • Classical
  • DigitalMusic
  • DVD
  • Electronics
  • ForeignBooks
  • GourmetFood
  • HealthPersonalCare
  • HomeGarden
  • Jewelry
  • Kitchen
  • Magazines
  • Merchants
  • Miscellaneous
  • Music
  • MusicalInstruments
  • MusicTracks
  • OfficeProducts
  • OutdoorLiving

  • SoftwareVideoGames
  • SportingGoods

Who can forget the commotion and surge of interest as invitations to the service began trickling out of the Mountain View, CA headquarters.

Fast forward to more "modern" web times. Gmail has continued to increase its personal and commercial user base. Last year, Gmail grew 43 percent (TechCrunch).

Google has updated its email service considerably since its inception in in 2004 which is why it is no surprise to see Google announce a new technology. Google Wave – a new way to communicate & collaborate in real-time.

WithWaves was created to serve as a resource for Google Wave developers and fans. Watch us as we develop for a new era of online communication and productivity.
