Better late than never dept: Shopzilla, the comparison shopping site, is now available in a UK version. NetImperative reports: "The service uses a proprietary search algorithm tool, ShopRank and receives more than one million consumer reviews of its merchants monthly. The firm said it is aiming to grab a hefty slice of the UK shopping comparison market, which includes rivals Kelkoo, Shopping.com, Pricerunner and PriceGrabber."
A few months ago, Shopzilla was taken over by E.W. Scripps for $525 million, as TheStreet.com reports here.
