    Amazon puts the web up for rent

    Amazon is giving people a chance to rent a copy of the net for themselves.


    Via its subsidiary Alexa, the e-commerce firm is letting people get at a regularly updated copy of much of the information found on the web.


    Via the Alexa service, anyone with a basic knowledge of programming will be able to search 4.5 billion web pages from more than 16 million websites for whatever they want.


    Prices for the service start at $1 per processor per hour to crunch the data.
