New Add-on: Shortlist

Joel Bradbury is at it again. Today he released a new add-on called Shortlist. While I do wish it was called short ribs because I’m a bit hungry right now, Shortlist is pretty damn cool.

Shortlist lets you add anything to a list. User’s don’t even need to have accounts with your site to create, keep and share their list.

I wasn’t sure at first either. Lists? C’mon. I can make lists! But Shortlist let you create lists in the way you create an Amazon wishlist. You could also use it to collect stuff, like images or files into a group.

This is pretty cool:

Shortlist doesn’t care where you’re content’s coming from. Wherever you’re content’s coming from, if you can see it on your site, you can add it to a shortlist.

Shortlist don’t care!

You can also clone or share a list. Check out the examples for more ideas.

The new add-on is available on Devot:ee and costs $25 per site license.
