As if you need more temptation to spend, Amazon has now made it possible to put items aside for purchase using Twitter. To start with, you need to connect your Twitter and Amazon accounts from your social settings page (you can also opt out). After that, it's almost too easy: when Amazon tweets out a product link like the "banana slicer" pictured above, all you have to do is reply with #AmazonCart (#AmazonBasket in the UK) and the product will be placed in your shopping cart. It's not quite an impulse buy, as you'll need to enter your Amazon account to complete the purchase. So far, we've confirmed that the service is now live in the US and UK, but there's no word yet of other regions. Meanwhile, check the video below for more info.
