Best New Mashups: New Takes on Shopping APIs

Lately we've seen some fun shopping mashups that aren't just simple price comparison apps. Instead these use the APIs--mostly Amazon Product Advertising API--to track your collections, keep up-to-date with entertainment and find products in a fun, conversational way.
