do you ever get bad presents? (not me…..)
How’s this for a cool idea? As you are surfing around on the web you just happen to come across that Retro 1989 Raiders jersey you have ALWAYS wanted… You can’t believe you’ve found it. But, it’s an off pay week, or you’re saving for a big holiday, or you think your wife would think you’re a loser for buying a lime green coloured football jersey AND then wearing it out in public…. well – this sites for you (though it will not help with the “your wife would think you’re a loser for buying a lime green coloured football jersey AND then wearing it out in public….” bit).
I’ve only just started using it, and it seems pretty nifty.
As you’re surfing around on the web and see items you would like, you save them to your list and then you share that list with your friends and they know exactly what you think would be a great birthday present for your upcoming 33rd birthday (December 23rd by the way).
One think I do not like so far is that it doesn’t seem too good at picking up the images of the items and I cannot see how to save an image of the item.
They do have blog & facebook integrationable (new word) products. See the right hand navigation boxedup flash thingy.
I’m going to keep having a look for how to save an image to it, or a product which lets you do that.

I received an email from Chris at boxedup.com, which in part read:
“This might seem like internet stalking (!), but your blog post mentioning boxedup popped up in my technorati feed, so I had a read.
Glad that you’re finding it useful. I saw that the one gripe that you had was about not being able to manually select an image when the automatic image grab hasn’t worked (which is fair enough – it’s something that needs to be improved). So just to let you know that we’ll be implementing a new form in the next week or so so that when you add a new product you’ll by default have the option to manually select an image if you aren’t presented with one that you want to use. Hope that does the trick for you!”
Looking forward to seeing the new form Chris.
