[3:00 PM] A New Mac Search/Shopping Site Launched by Staff Just in time for the last minute holiday rush, a new search/shop site has opened their virtual doors. MacAround: Online Shopping allows users to simultaneously search a number of popular virtual stores. For those not yet using Sherlock 2, MacAround provides an alternative to going through sites one by one. According to MacAround: The site provides an easy way for Mac-users simultaneously search 5 large online stores, Amazon.com, Beyond.com, Barnes & Noble, Outpost.com, and MacWarehouse. Customers simply use the MacAround store as a starting point for their shopping and buy directly from these respected online superstores. "E-commerce is an explosive business, and by using affiliate programs from some of the largest online stores, we can provide an easy way for customers to compare prices and specs from all them," says Joey Cooper, Director of Business Development at Cortland Media. "Our specialized Software, Hardware, and Books sections can help customers find exactly what they are looking for," he continues. You can find more information, and finish up your shopping, at the MacAround web site. MacAround: Online Shopping
