A Simple Wish

I've been tinkering with a side project for the last few months. Similar to Amazon's wishlist, I wanted a wishlist where I could track things I wanted to buy across websites. This way if anyone asked what I'd like for a birthday, or if I had the budget to spend, I could find my wishlist easily.

The site is Wishticle.com (like a listicle for wishes), think of it as an online bookmark of things you want. As the description suggests, you bookmark the URL (or website) of the product, or thing you desire and Wishticle does the rest. We read the details from the product’s website and add it to your main list.

To start, you add a wish by clicking the “Add a wish" button and then pasting in the Link(URL) of the product/thing/widget you wanted. The website should pull in the details (name, company, price and photo) so long as the thing you desired had those details on their site.

I'd really like for you to test the site and suggest things you'd like to see. Kick the tires a bit - create an account, add some URLs to your wishlist and tell me what you think?

I can be reached through this site’s contact page, or on my email gopal dot sandeep at-the-rate gmail dot com.
