user-generated social shopping site has launched features that enable a
new level of interactivity with mainstream social utility platforms.

San Francisco, CA (Vocus/PRWEB) -- Kazowie.com, a social shopping site where users
can discover and share products by creating wishlists, registries,
buyer's guides and polls, has launched features that enable a new level
of interactivity with mainstream social utility platforms. In addition
to already user-friendly shopping tools, users now have the ability to
share web feeds with popular social aggregators as well as the option
to export wishlists to a personal website or blog.
David Thomson, founder and CEO of Kazowie says, "As micro-blogging and
social aggregators grow, we're finding out that people want to display
all their information in a single place without the need to create
accounts on new sites. With this release we've tried to make it as easy
as possible to both use the site without any barriers as well as take
your lists with you to the places where your friends and family
frequent the most."
Users can set up their Kazowie account to post news feeds for new
products added to their existing micro-blogging accounts like Twitter,
Pownce, FriendFeed, and Tumblr. This allows connected people to receive
up to the minute coverage throughout their chosen networks.
Additionally, users have the option to login through existing Yahoo,
Gmail, OpenID, or AOL/AIM accounts, instead of creating a new account.
Kazowie users can also distribute their wishlists, registries,
buyer's guides or polls to any website or blog. This feature is useful
for bloggers or site owners who want to share their wedding registries
or great online finds with their readers and viewers. This feature
opens up the possibility for users to create affiliate relationship
with retailers.
About Kazowie.com
Kazowie.com was conceptualized by David
Thomson, a thirty-something who felt constrained by the traditional
registry process when getting married; he didn't like the restrictions
involved in choosing from a limited number of department stores. Years
later with a baby on the way, he wanted to create a personalized gift
registry at a single online address that he could actively share with
his friends and family. After surveying similar user-generated shopping
websites, David realized there was a niche to be filled. As the
principal of a user experience design company, Momentum Design Lab,
David turned to his company to create this unique experience. "More and
more people's purchasing decisions are influenced by online product
research and by friends and family members. Kazowie can offer simple
online tools to keep people connected." What began as an online
registry has blossomed into a robust, singular online social shopping
experience.
