GoogAzon Firefox Add-on ads Amazon listings to web search results
If you do a lot of shopping at Amazon and a lot of comparison shopping or product research on Google, you might want to check out the GoogAzon add-on for Firefox. Once installed, any time you search for an item on Google, you'll also see the top search result for your query from Amazon.
If a single product listing isn't good enough, just click the "see top 10 items" button and a list of 10 items from Amazon will drop down. Hovering over a link brings up an image of the product. You can also click the Share button to email a product link.
Despite it's name, GoogAzon isn't limited to Google searches. It also works with Yahoo! and MSN Live.
GoogAzon does appear to inject an Amazon Affiliate code into the links, so the plugin's author will likely make a few bucks any time you actually buy an item found through a GoogAzon search. But it shouldn't cost you anything extra.

"It also works with Yahoo! and MSN Live."
Not trying to be nitpicky here, 'MSN Live' is actually called Live Search. MSN isn't a search engine anymore. It's like having people still refer to Windows Live Messenger as 'MSN', when MSN Messenger died a few years ago. Kinda annoying to see people use the wrong naming.

My bad, I totally goofed that. I'll change the name (Live Search) in the next build. (I actually left the ! off Yahoo! as well, I think.)
And the latest version of GoogAzon actually shows 5 amazon items, and 5 ebay items. I'm still tweaking things, so I really appreciate feedback.
