This is silly. I'm blogging about my bad shopping habit and all I end up doing is surfing more online shopping sites. Can you imagine how tempting it is to click "buy"? There are just so many shopping sites out there, let alone blogs about shopping and social shopping-type services. Did that happen recently, or have I been asleep all this time?
Stylehive.com is basically a social network for online shoppers. You get to see each user's taste from the stuff they save, but I don't really see the point of the newsfeed, because all it ever says is "save product, add friend, save product, add friend..." Like it's trying to be Facebook or Friendster, but not.
I've been trying out
Shoplette.com recently. (Got sent an invite. When it's shopping-related, I don't mind...) It's interesting! Posting stuff you bought in the real world (rather than online stores) can be quite gratifying when you're working through a shopping addiction. Seems like a different take on the social shopping thing.
Wishpot.com is fun for creating wishlists. You can create wishlists out of stuff from any other website, and the site tells you when stuff on your wishlist goes on sale - handy!
Polyvore.com is fascinating. It's not really a shopping site. It lets you create a picture out of stuff you can find (and buy) online, and some of the pictures are really beautiful.
Enough online temptation for one day, one I think.
