Usually when I hear the word shopping cart I cringe because I’m expecting an ugly, hard to use beast of a shopping cart that makes shopping on the internet a chore. Say hello to Shopify, the new Web 2.0 startup which plans to change all that. Shopify is a clean, simple, and easy to use shopping cart that lets anyone, not just the tech-savvy, have their own ecommerce website. Shopify takes the bloat out of the online shopping experience and makes it look sexy. Comparing shopify to the usual ecommerce solution is like comparing Natalie Portman(my future wife) to Rosie O`Donnell.

The pricing plan is also attractive. There are no monthly fees or signup costs and you are only charged when you make a sale. A 3% commission is charged on sales and a lower rate applies to carts that do $10,000 or more in sales.

I think shopify is going to change the face of eCommerce and the way we think about shopping carts.
