On the Horizon

Posted May 16, 2006 in News

It’s now been a little more than two weeks since the launch of Wishlistr and the reception has been great so far. More than a thousand users has already signed up and close to 10 000 items has been added to the various wishlists. Needless to say, we’re thrilled.

We’ve received a lot of positive feedback (thank you all!), but also quite a few suggestions and requests — many for features we’re actually already working on. So we thought it might be a good idea to tell you a bit about our plans for the future.

One of the new features we’re working on is a linkroll generator, which will give you all the code you need to add a linkroll, with the latest items from your wishlist, to your website or blog.

A few of you have also been asking for a way to have more than one wishlist on the same user account. While we’re not not quite planing on introducing multiple wishlists — we feel that this will make things unnecessary complex, and above all we want to keep Wishlistr simple and easy to use — we are in fact working on a solution that will let you split your wishlist up in to categories and in effect give you the power to set up several different wishlists. Our solution involves something that is very popular among web apps these days — tags.

But more on this later. For now, look forward to the linkroll generator which will be added to the tools section in the next few weeks.
