RemarQ Communities Inc., San Jose, CA, a provider of Internet discussion services, launched a deal with MySimon.com this week that allows its users to comparison shop online.
Participants in RemarQ’s 30,000 discussion groups will be able to use MySimon’s comparison shopping services to scour for appropriate product deals on the Internet.
When a RemarQ user clicks on a MySimon link within a discussion, MySimon’s information retrieval engine will help find the best values on products related to the topic being discussed. MySimon has information on more than 10 million products at 1,600 merchant categories.
In a simultaneous move, RemarQ also launched search, ranking and tracking capabilities that aid in the research of potential online purchases.
