PleaseDressMe – a search engine for t-shirts!
I’ve read about PleaseDressMe on a few sites,
coach wallets,
abercrombie fitch - “, and whilst the idea of a t-shirt search engine sounds a little odd to me (I don’t go hunting for tees based upon their design elements), there does seem to be a lot of people that think its a great idea,
Hogans, so what the hell do I know?
For a search engine like PleaseDressMe to be successful, they need to have a massive amount of t-shirts in their database. Its not fair to judge PDM on that basis yet since they’re new and obviously still adding to their database,

Tagging could be an issue too; the way I would tag a t-shirt might not be the same way that someone doing a search would tag a tee, or,
The Measure of Beauty Created in Nature-the Golden Ratio_3012, more importantly, the way that PDM might tag a shirt,
monster beats, I guess they can combat that by tagging a tee with everything they can think of, but then there would be issues of accuracy. I don’t want to rag on the site too much though, it is well done,

Tods online -, so I’d imagine that whatever potential problems I can think of, they’ve thought of them too.

*Since I initially wrote this article they introduced an API (like all web 2.0 companies) and a vendor programme which will allow shops to add their own tees to the database, which will help alleviate the problem of having to add inventory themselves.
