1. To make finding well designed, interesting or unusual products and collectibles both simple and fun.

2. To make publishing or sharing lists of recommendations and wishlists easier and more appealing than maintaining a weblog and not tied to one particular store.

Using Wists is not like going to Walmart or searching a price comparison shopping site - we try to encourage the discovery and promotion of products from small retailers and manufacturers and young designers.

We are based in New York City and are backed by Gawker Media.

Wists was founded by David Galbraith who has a unique design and technical background to make Wists a combination of solid technology and useful content. David’s technology background includes founding three successful Internet Startups (RTA, Origins.net, Moreover.com) and co-authoring the RSS standard. His design experience includes being a qualified architect and product designer having worked with some of the world’s leading designers (Norman Foster, Jean Nouvel, Fisher Park).

Latest Wists traffic figures show strong growth with over half a million monthly uniques and 3 million page views.

One long requested is the ability to choose whether to search all Wists or just your own - which you can now do by checking the box next to the search button.

The second feature is the ability to Wist video clips from YouTube. If you are browsing a video on YouTube, click your ‘add to wists’ bookmarklet button. It will automatically create a thumbnail of the video for the small thumbnail image and embed the actual video for the larger one.

Let us know if you have any problems - support@wists.com

OObject the latest Wists site launches today.

Oobject is a gadget blog, but with a difference. Instead of posts, there are ‘charts’ constantly updated image galleries with the best items in each category, voted on by users. As usual, the focus is or quirky, unusual or well designed lists of things.

OObject is a bit like Billboard charts for gadgets.

OObject is a major leap forward in terms of the way our sites work as it completely couples the wists publishing system into a customized version of Wordpress, and uses the new editorial back-end of wists for management.
