Excellent! This is exactly the kind of thing I was thinking about building. I've got an Amazon wishlist with about 1000 items in it, and Amazon's tools for managing that just aren't up to snuff. I really want everything in RDF so I can play with it in a retailer agnostic fashion. Dan Brickley's ruminations on wishlists really opened my mind, though--wishes are a deeper subject than I had originally thought. Although the way I personally use wishlists has less to do with desires to actually own all those items and more to do with a sort of bookmarking. I wishlist any books/music/movies recommended to me (by real people) or that sound interesting. If I find that I'm wishlisting something already in my wishlist, I usually buy it. Ryan
