MyRegistry.com Debuts Real-Time Gift Registry Feeds Providing Consumers With A Unique Window Into Real-World Gift Requests

FORT LEE, N.J., Oct. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- MyRegistry.com, the leading universal gift registry platform, announced today the introduction of its newest feature, a real-time member generated "gift idea" feed categorized by "wedding," "baby" and "wish list" which allows website users and visitors to view gifts as they are added in real-time to members' registries. The new Wedding, Baby and Wish List community "gift idea" feeds were specifically designed as consumer education tools that solve the problem for an individual who doesn't know which products to register for, or simply wants to be inspired by other brides-to-be and expectant mothers. As MyRegistry.com gift registry holders update and add items to their online registries, the live feed showcases the most recent items that are being requested. This unique service helps answer the most common gift registry question, "What is everyone else registering for?"

With over 120 million gifts requested on MyRegistry.com, the real-time "gift idea" feed shows what products are currently trending on MyRegistry.com by continuously displaying the most recent gift requests. This feature is completely anonymous and was created in order to provide other members with a wealth of gift-ideas and inspiration for their own registries, without exposing any individual user's information or the actual registry. Each item includes a link to the original product page on the website from where it was added, along with an extension allowing members to add that item to his/her own registry with a click of a mouse.

"With the continuing popularity of product curation and individuals looking for inspiration everywhere, our goal is to assist and educate our users when choosing the items that they really need for their own lifestyles," says MyRegistry.com President Nancy Lee.  "The new MyRegistry.com real-time gift idea feed allows anyone to see what their peers are adding to their registries, which we believe will make the process easier and more fun for all of them."

The new "gift Idea" feeds are also expected to heavily benefit MyRegistry.com's preferred Sync-and-Display big-box retailers and the company's Registry-Widget eCommerce partners. Additionally, all items added to registries from those stores will now have increased exposure. This showcase of items from real registries is anticipated to generate more sales for retailers and create new and enhanced registry trends.
