Flashes of Panic

…that all your annoying ahead-of-the-game relatives are asking you what you want for Christmas. Or, alternately, you’re coming up with all these great ideas which you will forget by the time they ask you.

Last year, I hacked up a quick PHP web app which facilitates sharing of lists among families. It’s a bit rough, but eliminates several of what I consider shortcomings of wish lists like Amazon’s. I’ve done a little bit of revision recently, and have plans for a few more features, but it works and my family, for one, is using it again this year.

If you think your family might be interested (and, I admit, it’s not for everyone,) drop me a line and I’ll send the address.
