Simple Tracking

With the holidays coming up, and tomorrow being the first and busiest shopping day of the holiday season (Black Friday, for those of you not in the United States or hiding under a rock), you might want an easy way to track packages coming to your home. After all, you want to be ready for the holidays, and what better way to avoid long lines at the mall than to order online! Package carriers let you track where your packages are via a web form on their website, but the web is all about RSS nowadays, so why not track your package via a feed, right? Enter Simple Tracking. To use it, simply enter your tracking number, and select the carrier and you’ll be presented with a custom RSS feed which you can input into your favorite aggregator. Simple Tracking currently supports UPS, FedEx, and the United States Postal Service (USPS), and work is being done to support DHL as well.

    Track your packages with Google Maps and RSS feeds! Track UPS, FedEx, USPS, and DHL. PackageMapping.com really works and is free to the public. See where your package is as it makes its way across the map. Check it out and bookmark it!
