Baby registry service?

Ca
Is anyone else thinking of doing this? We have set up a list at John Lewis. I fancied doing it with BabiesRus but they appear to only offer their registry service to customers in the US.
We haven't handed out the details to anyone yet as it made sense to check what parents had in their lofts first. My best friend Ellen said she wants the link when we are ready.
I don't know whether we will distribute it widely (maybe just immediate family and anyone who asks) but it is a handy reference for us for now and we are hoping John Lewis offer us a discount rate to purchase unbought items after the baby comes - they did for our wedding list!
What do you think?
