Hi everyone,

Ok so iv got a simple website idea. A wishlist website where members can open a profile and upload up to 5 products they desire. These products can be viewed by friends and families to help buy presents for birthdays and Christmas, or simply just a gifts. The friend or family can click on the product and will redirected straighted to the product online where they can buy it from.

The idea plays on the two current hot markets social networking and social commerce.

Would you use a website like this?

Many Thanks

I think Amazon already do this don't they? I know there are also other hair and beauty sites that offer this as at Christmas they did competitions in which you filled in the wish-list and applied your friends emails or were given a link, the wish list would then appear for them. Amazon works similarly I think, I've never used it but a friend of my mum's sent out her Amazon wish-list to everyone one year about 10 years ago.

Personally? I wouldn't, it feels a bit presumptuous to me and fussy as I am, I like the idea of people putting thought into something for me, it sort of means more when they have tried to find things out about me or given me some thought rather then just looked along a gift list. Even if it means I don't get what I want, the appreciation and feeling that I matter enough means more to me.
