Amazon Products Visualization - YASIV. Yasiv is a visual recommendation service that helps people find the right product from Amazon's catalog; be it a book, a movie or a video game - Yasiv finds anything and everything which is sold on Amazon.com. We often decide what to buy based on what others are buying, and that's no bad thing, after all. If something is bought by many of our friends there has to be a reason. Maybe it's a good product and worth the money? This is where Yasiv steps in; it shows you what people are buying along with other products. A link between the two products means that they are often bought together. By simply observing the network of products one can guess at what is popular and what isn’t.

The site is in its early stages at the moment and there are many things that we want to get right.
