Amazon is also embracing the new, social, e-commerce way and has enabled users to add items to their accounts’ wish lists using a simple hashtag – #AmazonWishList.

This is the second time Amazon collaborates with Twitter. The e-commerce giant had previously launched the #AmazonCart which allowed users to add items directly to their shopping carts through Twitter.
After sending your tweet containing #AmazonWishList and a link to the item (or replying to a tweet containing the link of the Amazon item), you should get a response from @MyAmazon account, containing the status of the item and its availability, including if it’s added to your list and how you can buy it.

This is another sign that Twitter is relying on major brands to boost its e-commerce services – apart from the introduction of the ‘Buy’ button earlier this year.
