Nice Touch: Search Stores by ISBN
Did you know that Amazon’s search field accepts ISBNs? It does — both the 10- and 13-digit variety. Type or paste in an ISBN, hit “Go,” and you’ll be taken straight to the book page. It’s perfect for when you’re searching for a book whose title isn’t very unique. (Sorting through the various editions of “The Elements of Style” is how I found this feature.)
It’s the sort of obvious, hidden feature you don’t think about until you try it. You’re hoping it will work, and it does. Sweet.
(This also works on Half.com, Barnes & Noble, and of course Borders, which is just an Amazon storefront.)
