Post news feeds to popular micro-blogging sites.

If you have a Twitter, FriendFeed, Pownce or Tumbler account, you can set up your Kazowie account to post news feeds on new products you’ve added.  Your friends will have up to the minute coverage on all of your Kazowie activity.

Take Your Wishlist, Registry, Buyer’s Guide or Poll With you

Another feature we’ve added is the ability to take your lists with you to your personal website or blog.  This is a great feature if you want to show off your amazing taste and savvy shopping habits to your readers or if you want to place your baby registry right on your blog.

We’ve added a ton of useful and exciting features to the site:

Login Features

You now have a few choices when joining Kazowie: you can either create a new account or use an existing Gmail, Yahoo, OpenID, or AOL/AIM account. Once an account is created, you can login via any of these 5 methods and set your preferred login method in your profile.

We’ve created new list types: in addition to wishlists, you can now create Gift Registries, Buyer’s Guides or Polls.

Gift Registries

Instead of spending days and days walking through department stores scanning items, you can use Kazowie to compile a centralized registry from an endless number of online shops. Friends and family can shop for you right from your Kazowie profile. There is also an option to submit the name and address of a local store to direct friends and family to shop for the item offline; a great way to support your local community.

Buyer’s Guides

You can create a buyer’s guide to conduct a product comparison or just to share your expertise. Below is an example of a buyer’s guide that I put together to find a gift for my Dad; he’s a coffee lover, so I compiled a list of different gift ideas for Father’s Day.

Polls

You can create an opinion poll to have others vote on what they think is the best item and track the results to help you make your purchasing decision.

We’ve also added important new features that make the site even more simple to use:

New Search Bar

This new feature makes it super easy to conduct a search for a particular product, person, wishlist, registry or group.

Stores

You can browse through an A to Z list of stores that are featured on the site and see how many products from the site are on Kazowie. Find new and unusual online stores; give a store a star rating to remind yourself of your experience with the store’s site.

“Also Seen At…”

By clicking on a store’s link, you can check out what other products it has to offer. This is a great way to catch up on the coolest new products added from your favorite stores.

“I Bought it!”

Let a friend know that you bought something from their registry or wishlist for them. You can make the purchase private or send along a personalized message.
