Bezos shows a new feature of A9 search that lets you do vertical searches, i.e., within sources (content and search engines?) within particular domains Amazon has access to. And, through an RSS extension, you can syndicate your search. [Technorati tags: oreilly etech]

Werner Vogels in the comments corrects the above:

actually the OpenSearch RSS is to allow *any* content provider to be integrated with the search engine to do domain-specific searches. It is not limited to content providers Amazon has access to but to any content provider. Other search portals could adapt to consume OpenSearch RSS and they get instant access to all the domain search available.

Thanks for the correction. And a note to readers: One of the things I most like about etech is that I don’t understand much of it. So, keep those corrections coming!
