Dear Reader,

We are very excited about the response to our new Directory of Wish Lists. It's been on-line less than a week, but we are already convinced that this will be an important resource for users, and will have a major impact on new product development. We'd like to remind you today of some of the available features of these Wish Lists.

Through your efforts, there are now Wish Lists for 14 products. The master listing of Wish Lists is at http://www.directionsmag.com/wishlist.asp If the product you're after is not yet listed, go to the Product Directory (http://www.directionsmag.com/products.asp), locate the product, and click "Add" in the Wishes column; then add your wish and vote on it.

By default, wishes are sorted by product name. You can always get a quick picture of other readers favorite Wishes by clicking the "Top 20 Wishes" button. These are ranked by the number of people who have voted on the individual wishes, across all products. The current Top 20 Wishes are at http://www.directionsmag.com/wishlist.asp?Action=Top20 (We will soon add a "scoring" ranking which will give a statistically significant indication of the "strength" with which users want individual wishes.)

You can see which products have the most wishes by clicking the sort by "wishes" link. This listing is available at http://www.directionsmag.com/wishlist.asp?Action=WishListHQ&Sort=Wishes.

To check recent activity, click the "last wish" button; this will sort the Wish Lists, placing the list with the newest wish on top of the listing. This "last wish" listing is at http://www.directionsmag.com/wishlist.asp?Action=WishListHQ&Sort=LastWish.

Of course, you can suggest and vote on improvements for the Wish List itself, at the Wish List Wish List at http://www.directionsmag.com/wishlist.asp?ID=379.

And when you are browsing, don't forget to vote!

Thanks for helping us build Directions Magazine, and be sure to tell a friend.

Regards,

Scott Elliott
