=== Froogle (2002 β 2007) === Created by [[Craig Nevill-Manning]]<ref name="ViseMalseed2006">{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=4appEmPMdF8C&pg=PA137|title=The Google Story|last1=Vise|first1=David A.|last2=Malseed|first2=Mark|publisher=Delta Trade Paperbacks|year=2006|isbn=9780553383669|pages=137β|oclc=898689633}}</ref> and launched in December 2002, Froogle was different from most other [[price comparison service]]s in that it used Google's [[web crawler]] to index product data from the websites of vendors instead of using paid submissions.
