Next time you stumble on a great deal, and want to share it with your friends, consider this new website!
At justbought.it, shoppers can share their latest finds with friends on Twitter and Facebook. They show where they bought the item, add a picture, and their opinion.
Then, the website creates an interactive Google map of all purchases made recently by other local members. As a result, everyone can see the best deals around town.
Users can either login to the site, or share a good buy directly from their iPhone.
Even though the website launched this month, it's already showing a lot of potential. Adarsh Dilip, CEO of Social Crowd Inc that owns justbought.it, says, "We just launched on August first. So far, approximately 600 users have tried us in the past 20 days."
And most users seem to be satisfied. This user tells me "I love this site. It's a great way to catch hot trends, deals, and find unique items."
Another Tweeter gave me this useful tip,"I choose the people I follow carefully so I trust their purchasing decisions."
Dilip says the best is yet to come. "We haven't even begun our marketing efforts, and we already have blogs and websites linking to us. Our main traffic boost will come when we get the "just bought" embed button ready for online retailers."
The embed button will also allow web shoppers to tweet about their latest find.
And there are more things in the work. "We have a new site design in the works where the Google map gets a bit smaller, and more community features are implemented to keep users on the site longer," says Dilip.
