Is there an acceptable way to tell people you have started an, erm, an... amazon wishlist?

(Edit take 2: does the link work now? Thanks, mooism :) )

I'd say that works.

Is there any post today........

Um, the link takes me to my wishlist.

Erhem, that link appears just to take me to my own wish list (unless you also want Quatermass, dictionary books et al)?!

I’m perplexed: Why did you link to my wishlist?

(“Gosh,” I thought, “those books look familiar. So does the name. And the description. Ah.”)

I have put a link to my wishlist in my journal. You never know when people's generous spirit might kick in!

Try linking here (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/registry/2ISIK86K6URAS/ref%3Dwl%5Fs%5F3/026-6537239-8097205) :-)

I've never managed to work that out. So I have a whish list (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~kprocter/Kwish.html), which I point people at when they ask, but which, hitherto, had not been linked to.

If you buy something from it, does it automatically get removed from your wishlist so that two people don't buy the same thing by accident?

I think the usual way of announcing it is more like "it's my <link>birthday</link>."
