As I’ve explained before, a number of individuals have told me about IAC’s plans to get into comparison shopping with a project code named Red Carpet. However, because IAC doesn’t comment on rumors, I’ve had no official confirmation of this information.
Looks like Red Carpet is still moving forward. Greg Yardley tipped me off to this job listing for Red Carpet on the beta job site YorZ (if you know anyone who fits the bill, you can receive a $5k bounty for the referral). While the listing does not mention IAC or comparison shopping, it definitely reads like a comparison shopping job.
I’m about to get on a flight to San Jose for SES. Expect a ton of coverage this week.
