Amazon's wishlist feature is a great feature for managing a list of books I wanna get, and how much I should pay for them if I head to a bookstore. This, coupled with Amazon's Web Services API, makes for interesting possibilites.

Access it here.

How to find your Amazon wishlist id:

  1. View your wishlist in your browser, then click on the "Your Wish Lists" link right at the top of the page.
  2. A page will be displayed with your existing lists, plus a form titled "Create a new Wish List".
  3. Right-click on the wishlist link and copy it to clipboard.
  4. Paste into a text editor like Notepad, and the part of the link after "id=…." is the wishlist id. It should look something like 1YY1OKRQG2EU5.
