Google Images integration #36

Open mikong opened 14 years ago

This is a suggestion from Greg Moreno. He said he normally looks for his image from Google, so why not preview the top Google Image results based on the product name. What do you guys think?

The idea I got from the development of boughtstuff is we'll be indexing our own images and use that in the preview so we can reuse our own images, but I'm not sure if the team has considered using Google Images.

This sounds like an open source scraper library that captures the first X images from google.

Why a new scraper library? Meron atang ajax api ung Google Image Search. you can probably limit the results as well.
