Buying gifts for your friends is a lot of fun if you have
sufficient time to shop. The gesture of gifting is liked all over the world.
The receiver of the gifts appreciates it even more if it’s something of their
preference. The ‘ifs’ can be eliminated if the person you are buying the gift
for has a wish list and you have access to it.
We usually have an idea about what kind of things some of
our closest friends would like to get for their birthday or as their wedding
present but we can never be too sure unless we ask them. Then there are so many
distant friends, family members and co-workers; we have absolutely no clue
about their choice. That is where the concept of a Wish List comes in.
There are several different ways of creating an online wish
list and they work fine for many. The only problem with all those forums is the
fact that they have certain limitations in terms of reach. Only the person
registered to that forum can access that list. And in today’s world no one has
time to find their friend’s wish lists and handle multiple accounts at the same
time.
This idea needed to be integrated with a social network in
order to make it more convenient for the mass audiences. There has been quite a
few attempts over Facebook to reinvent this idea but never received a lot of
popularity amongst the users.
Recently a new application has been launched, for the
gifting purpose, on Facebook,
iPhone
and Android
as well. It, by far, appears to be the most extensive effort in this regard.
The name of the application is GiftBox and it was
developed by the team of Avenue Social Inc. It has an easy-to-use
simple design which allows the user to add items from all online shopping
websites. The key feature of this app is it’s availability on multiple fronts.
You can easily access the wish list of your loved ones via iPhone, Android or
Facebook, and buy gifts for them with just a few clicks.
Another feature of GiftBox is its integrated sponsored charity application. You
can make donation to different trusts and charities. With dollar-for-dollar
company matching program, the user’s donation amount is doubled by the
sponsors. This Facebook
app, web-browser shopping tool, iPhone
and Android
app is available free of cost.
