If you’ve ever bemoaned the need to have a different wishlist on each of your favorite shopping sites, then Wishpot is for you. This online service lets you use a toolbar button (which you get when you sign up for a free account) to add items from any site to your wishlist. Click the button when you are on a site, select the list you want to add it to, fill in any notes, click ‘add’ and carry on shopping. You can easily share your lists with friends and family taking the hassle out of gift shopping for all of you.
There are other great features, too. Once an item is included in your wishlist, you can use the Wishpot price comparison engine to find it at the cheapest price or to find coupon savings. Wishpot will also notify you when the item goes on sale, so you can save money. Recently added features include the ability to add items to your list by taking a photo from your mobile device or to do a price check if you have the barcode information.
Wishpot is an extremely useful service, both for those looking for a hassle-free way to maintain gift lists for weddings and other special occasions, and those looking for gift ideas. The ability to search lists by price, category and tags and to create more than one list within a single account make it even more valuable.

Nice write up! Out of curiosity, how do you rate Wishpot against Amazon Universal Wishlist?
October 14, 2009
Seriously the Amazon wishlist is not that great and is not really universal since they mainly want you to put Amazon products in the list. Wishpot does not sell products so they are neutral and let you easily add stuff from any site.
