A Retail-Tech-Specific Search Engine?
Written by Evan SchumanNovember 11th, 2006
Someone has taken one of the 19 decillion beta sites that Google is running and has turned it into a retail-technology-specific search engine. They started with Google’s main list of various search products and zeroed in on the customized search engine.
That Google creation allows someone to throw in a list of sites that should be searched first before Google searches the rest of the universe. The theoretical result: Much more accurate and appropriate search answers.
The IHL Consulting Group turned it into a specialized retail technology search engine and dubbed it Sophia’s Secret Search. IHL claims to have dropped in more than 1,200 retail and hospitality sites into the engine. It’s free, so it’s worth a shot.

Is there really an improvement between a mag swipe and contactless tap if multi-factor authentication is required?
