The site has Performance Marketing Agreements with over 300 merchants, giving it access to a wide variety of merchandise. Links to that merchandise are organized by theme (e.g. characters, movies, shows, or teams), to make them easier to find.

Now GooShopping.com has even more to offer, and has officially relaunched this June (2002).

Here's an overview of the site enhancements;

· Over the past several months, GooShopping.com has added over one hundred new merchants and over 300 new theme pages, tripling the number of outgoing links from 1,800 to over 5,500. New links are added almost every day.

· The site has been redesigned to make it easier to navigate, and to make it more reflective of the site's heavy emphasis on cartoons, TV and movies.

· GooShopping has introduced a logo, featuring spokes-cartoon Gooric.

· On many of its most popular pages, GooShopping is adding links to content sites and fan sites. 

· GetGoo, the official newsletter of Abagoo Concepts, was launched in June and will include regular updates regarding the content and growth of GooShopping.

· Beginning in August, the GetGoo newsletter will be giving away merchandise from GooShopping each week until at least the end of 2002.

· More details about the mailing list, the addition of content links, and the prize giveaways are available at http://www.GetGoo.com.

Ed Kaiser, the owner of Abagoo Concepts and GooShopping.com, says, "The main goal of this site is to save time. It's great for busy people, especially parents, who don't want to spend all their time sitting in front of the computer. They're able to find lots of things without needing to know any search engine tricks. They'll find cool stuff they didn't even know was out there. And when they're done, they'll have a lot more time to spend with their kids or whatever else is important in their lives."

GooShopping.com is a part of Abagoo Concepts (http://www.abagoo.com ) a collection of web sites owned and operated by Ed Kaiser. Other Abagoo Concepts sites include AlmostRipe.com (a weblog serving the same audience as GooShopping.com), Gooric.com (the home of GooShopping.com's cartoon mascot) and GetGoo.com (the home of the official Abagoo Concepts Newsletter and Media Room).
