I love apps like these, especially when they have domains that make sense to have usernames in them.
The amazon.com price comparisons are a little annoying to me, though, because most products don't ship internationally from Amazon.com. Not only that, if I'm entering prices that are in CAD$ and price comparisons are from a site (Amazon.com) that sells items in USD$, the price comparisons don't add a lot of value. It'd be nice if there was a way to set a locale to get price comparisons from. That way, you'd still be able to earn affiliate income, but even more than before because it's more highly targeted to the user.
