About Time Amazon

August 26, 2005

When I am interested in a book, I will usually add that book to my Wishlist at Amazon.com. Then when I am ready to buy the book, I go to my wishlist and add it to my cart and purchase it. In the past, I have thought it would be really nice if once I purchased the item, it would automatically be removed from my wishlist. But reality was that I had to do it manually.

Last week when I purchased some books, I went back to my wishlist to delete them and noticed that Amazon had automatically done it for me. I was so excited.

This is an issue of useability and to me it only made sense that once I purchased something from my Wishlist, that item would be removed. I am glad that Amazon finally made that a reality.
