iTaggit Announces Innovative Facebook Application for Sharing Items and Collections with Friends
Wishlist feature arrives just in time for holiday shopping season.
Austin, TX (PRWEB) November 13, 2007 -- iTaggit, the leading online collection website that aims to change the way people collect, organize, and enjoy their personal items and collections, today announced the availability of the iTaggit Facebook application.
The application displays up to six collections on a user’s Facebook profile -- the top five most recently updated public collections and a user’s Wishlist. The Wishlist collection is a popular new feature on iTaggit that allows users to add, tag and share gift ideas with their friends on Facebook, in addition to the iTaggit platform itself -- a particularly relevant function with the holiday shopping season just around the corner.
“Facebook is an exciting platform for iTaggit and our users,” said iTaggit CEO David Altounian. “The ability to share collections and items provides another way for people to connect and interact. Our Facebook application is another important feature that we have implemented in our push to help individuals and collectors better manage, organize, and share the things that they value.”
In addition to constantly refreshing a user’s Facebook profile with their top six iTaggit collections, the application also tracks when a user makes additions or changes to any of their iTaggit collections or Wishlist in the News Feed area. This component of the application allows users to keep track of their friends’ collections in real time, further extending iTaggit’s multi-faceted sharing capabilities.
“I’m in Facebook all day, everyday,” said Jamie Gilliam, Facebook/iTaggit user. “Bringing iTaggit into that interface lets me manage my collections and see my friends’ stuff without ever leaving Facebook where I’m spending all my time in anyway.”
iTaggit provides an online environment for cataloging, managing, and sharing collections of items, while preserving user and data privacy. The site also features community resources, where users can connect and interact with friends, like-minded collectors, and knowledgeable experts. The new iTaggit Facebook application is the latest in a line of recent product upgrades, which include a new, streamlined user interface and full integration with eBay and Amazon for seamlessly finding, tracking and selling items from within the iTaggit site.
The iTaggit Facebook application is available immediately. Individuals can add the application by searching for “iTaggit” in the Facebook application directory, or by selecting “add” from the Profile of friends who have already added the application. To learn more about iTaggit or chat with others who are using the Facebook application, Facebook members can join the “iTaggit -- The Place for Every Thing!” group.
