Abstract
A web site that presents a user interface that displays images of products to a user. The product images that are displayed are of products that are recently trending or popular as determined by data derived from one or more sources. Each product image is displayed without the price of the respective product and without text naming, describing or identifying the respective product. Therefore, the user interface is constructed to focus on the trending products themselves so that the user interface is clean and uncluttered, allowing customers to focus on the trending products for possible purchase.
