Very nice and quite instructive.

It demonstrates quite well where a book stands in the Also-Bought cloud.

One interesting element is the way links affect the cloud.  I'm sure someone way smarter than I am could use this to make predictive assumptions.

I've been trying to interpret the arrows. My book seems to lead away a lot more than have arrows pointing toward me. Interesting.

Hi Guys,

Wow, thank you very much for sharing my work! I'm Andrei, author of the site. Deanna tweeted me about this discussion and I wanted to join and thank you all for kind words Smiley!

Hey there!

Thanks loads for setting up that webpage! It gives me the shivers to think about what webpages can do nowadays!

Oh this is really cool. I am not an author, so I am looking at the site as a really useful tool for a reader. I just read a Time Travel book and putting that one into the box, I get so much other potential stuff to look at. So I found some other time travel books and by going farther out with the arrows, it branches, but is still relevant to what I started with.

I haven't used these also boughts and stuff much on Amazon at all. But I will be using this site for it as it just seems more complete and much easier to use. Plus its fun  Grin

Great job Andrei. Nicely done, nicely done indeed.  Grin

Two of my books don't appear and the third merely displays the Amazon product description. Sorry, I don't see the utility otherwise.

Really? Permanent Interests has a huge network attached to it. Are you using IE8? You have to have IE9 or later. Or use Firefox or Chrome.
