Riya relaunched today as Like.com. Great domain name.
Still some rough edges on this particular site, today, for sure. But there is no doubt:
visual search will change online retail.
Check them out.
Update: solid analysis on Riya/Like today over at TechCrunch.

Nice article. Riya have some competition on this one – London based PIXSTA have launched ChezImelda recently – a huge online shoe store browsable by image. Comparing the two, Like.com’s site is more polished and great fun (I particularly like the celebrity section), but for a PURE shopping experience http://www.chezimelda.com is much quicker and more intuitive. It will be interesting to watch which one consumers respond best to.
