  • Like.com

    Like.com was a price comparison service website that billed itself as a "visual search engine for products".

    History

    The website was created by Riya, a company built to create a search engine used to search for similar faces among photos. The company found it difficult to monetize the service, however, so they created Like.com to use the same technology for a different purpose. Riya's CEO, Munjal Shah, noted that "the same technology works well to find similar-looking products." Riya's CTO and co-founder, Burak Göktürk, had previously worked with computer vision technology and has filed for two dozen facial-recognition patents under his name. The website was first announced at the Web 2.0 Conference on November 8, 2006. Like.com raised US$19.5 million from investors who included Bay Partners, BlueRun Ventures, and Leapfrog Ventures. The company planned to make money by acting as an affiliate to the retail sites that it links to, allowing it to receive about a 10% commission on each sale that the website sent to an online retailer. As of November 2006, the website had about two million unique products from 200 merchants. In 2015, the site became defunct and redirected users to Google's shopping search engine.

    by: Ra

    Dear John, I'm sorry I can't do this anymore
    You're not the man I fell in love with
    And I have to move on with my life, goodbye
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye cool
    You were the one who'd never leave
    Beautiful eyes, you seemed so free
    Touching your face I felt complete
    Holding your hand my heart would weep
    So everything that came out of your mouth was full of lies
    You looked me right dead in the eyes
    You'd call your girlfriends and tell them that I abused your trust
    You did your best to demonize
    You were the one who'd never leave
    Beautiful eyes, you seemed so free
    Touching your face I felt complete
    Holding your hand my heart would weep
    You were the one who raped my soul
    Beautiful lies, you stole my hope
    Touching your ass, I scratch the skin
    Holding your neck, I tie the rope
    (Pulling it tight)
    You were the one who'd never leave
    Beautiful eyes, you seemed so free
    Touching your face I felt complete
    Holding your hand my heart would weep
    You were the one, the one for me
    Now that you're gone it's hard to see
    So much of me has gone away
    There's no need to stay another day
    But someone's got to pay
    But someone's got to pay
    But someone's got to pay
    But someone's got to pay
    But someone's got to pay
    But someone's got to pay
    But someone's got to pay
