One of the reasons I began this blog was the overwhelmingly positive response I was getting on the hot new shopcasting site, <a href="http://www.thisnext.com/">Thisnext.com.</a><br /><br />If you haven't visited it yet, you ought to. It's a compilation of people's recommendations for available products on the market.<br /><br />I have personally created over 7 different lists on there.<br /><br />Begun by Gordon Gould and Craig Ogg, it's received wonderful press from reputable sources like The New York Times and Wall Street Journal and continues to grow.<br /><br />Once you compile a list of products, they keep stats as to how many people actually 'clicked through' on the product or put it on their own personal wish lists. It's here, that I discovered I have a knack for finding items that people like or want.<br /><br />Today I learned that I am the first person to have posted <a href="http://www.thisnext.com/by/laurasweet/picks/">349 "first" recommendations.</a><br /><br />I believe that literally means I'm a Trend-setter.
