ILikeTotallyLoveIt - The Digg of Social Shopping

I read a review on Mashable the other day about ILikeTotallyLoveIt, a Digg-style bookmarking and voting site for products.

Personally, I love the concept and the site is a great place for discovering that quirky gift for the person who has everything except a Dalai Lama action figure.

Iliketotallyloveit.com offers a button that can be added to your blog, webpage, or online store to allow your vistors to submit and vote for products directly from your site. But until this site gains more popularity, you’re cluttering up your page to add the button to your estore.

Too bad this site is full of bugs. I often have to re-enter my info when voting products and hit dead pages when trying to view profiles and add friends. It’s hard to find where to sign up and even harder to find how to connect socially with other ILTLI’ers (you have to click on a user’s name link and out slides options including view profile and add to friends).

Some products submitted to ILTLI are just designer “concepts” and it’s a bit heartbreaking when you discover you can’t actually buy a cassette-deck toaster. But if you specialize in selling unique gifts, you might hit just the right audience with this site, and it’s easy to submit your own schwag. Unlike Digg, submitting your own items won’t get you in trouble. But remember just to submit the really cool stuff, not the stuff pretty much everybody sells. Signal vs. noise.

It’s already a year old, but the German social shopping site just received additional funding, so hopefully they use that money to fix the bugs and promote the site to gain a wider audience.
