<h3>New Amazon Deals Shopping Web Site</h3>
<p>I just launched a new web site for Finding deals on Amazon called SpendFish. The site is built with CFML, and is still in Beta - there are tons more things I plan on adding to the site. Such as RSS feeds, improved layout, and more advanced searching options. But for now it is usable, and I've found a lot of great deals on it already!</p><p>I would love to hear any feedback you may have</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong> The amazon deal shopping site was formerly called Dealazon, but is now called SpendFish - fish for deals. Also I have updated the site with RSS Feeds for finding deals, and more. Please give SpendFish a try for finding deals on Amazon.com.</p>
<h3>A little more about how it finds deals</h3>
<p>SpendFish actually connects to amazon's web services to find the best deals. It compares the list price of a product to the current price, and calculates the discount. Most products are discounted at 30% or more.</p>
<p><strong>Update Again:</strong> This site is no longer operating</p>
