It allows users to create a list of items they would recommend to others, linked to merchants that sell those items. I wrote about it pre-launch here. They are creating tools to easily create the lists and publish them on websites. My Pick List has affiliate relationships with the merchants (current list is here), and gives publishers a cut of any sales that occur from the list. It’s similar to Yahoo’s Shoposphere, although Yahoo does not yet share any revenues with the publisher. [...] [...] MyPickList is a new service that launched earlier this month.

Some of its potential success seems to be related to the number and quality of vendors that they can partner with.

Incredible! see: www.zlio.com/); The problem: the lack of community feeling. First, you must have a community. Then, you trust them if they recommend something and might look into it. If not, why bother? I have had no return, met no one, gained zero euro from my list. Zlio launched a shopping recommendation service in december, over here, in France (groundbreaking in France?

A bunch of lists everywhere isn't innovative, nor is it helpful. If we're all just looking at our friends lists anyway, what's the value of having it on a proprietary site? Not trying to belittle the efforts of MyPickList, I just don' see it being helpful next time I'm trying to make a purchasing decision (just as I never found Kaboodle to be helpful).

A handful of blogs today have been picking up on MyPickList.com, a very cool social list-making, commission app. Basically, you sign up and and then start a list of items you own or have used, write a bit about them, and then when someone buys an item from your list, you earn some dough. Instead of writing reviews at review sites, why not write them there and earn some money in the process? I think it’s a pretty slick idea, and wish it was around ages ago.

If my good friend Joe, who I know is up to date on digital photography, recommends a specific camera I might put a lot more weight on that than anonymous and possibly biased recommendations.
