Testimonials
“ART is an extremely useful tool for building a list of books or other products from Amazon.com. I am using the application to maintain a list of ASIN (I.e., ISBN) numbers for different types of books. I use ART to gather information such as author, title, publication date, and price from Amazon.com. I then use this information to create html that can immediate integrate with a Web site I am developing. The major advantage of doing this, compared to using Amazon ASTORE, is that I can add search engine optimization code to my Web site so people surfing the Web can readily find and purchase the books that I list. Kudos to the Genesis Circle team for their work on this product. They have been receptive to all of my suggestions to improve ART. ” Jay Morgan, Towson University, Baltimore, Maryland USA
