Welcome to StyleFeeder

StyleFeeder is a website designed for the style savvy. On this site, Internet connoisseurs join together to rate their favorite products and add them to wish lists. You’ll never have to wait for your next copy of Wired or Vogue to see what is in.

Dina Pradel, a member of the StyleFeeder team, shared some details about the company with Business Quickie readers:
StyleFeeder is a social shopping community that simplifies the online retail experience by helping shoppers discover interesting products on the Web and express their personal style. StyleFeeder's proprietary recommendation engine connects shoppers to both products and people they are likely to love by learning and tailoring to their tastes and interests.

We've had widgets available so that people can display their StyleFeeds on their social networking homes (MySpace, Friendster, CafeMom, etc.) for awhile, but we recently developed a Facebook app that is entirely embedded in their closed environment. Not only can you place your StyleFeed on your profile so your friends can see what you're shopping for...you can also rate products, meet your StyleTwins (other users that our recommendation engine has determined have similar style to you) AND get personalized product recommendations, all without leaving Facebook.

You can check out the StyleFeeder Facebook application here.

Ashley Olsen, Amanda Condon, Lil Mama and other famous Hollywood stars have created their own pages on StyleFeeder.
