It was released from FedEx and UPS very quietly, but they will now proactively notify you by voice, SMS, or E-Mail when they have a package for your name/address combo...and it's integrated with their mobile apps. Already used it to catch a wine shipment via FedEx that I wasn't notified of by the Winery. I imagine most of the folks here receive packages quite regularly and this will eliminate the need to get the tracking number from the shipper (or at least give you a backup). They also allow you to designate when to deliver (great for items requiring a signature), to hold at the office, etc.Details here:http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/resources/techsupport/mychoice.htmland here:http://news.van.fedex.com/DeliveryManagerFull Disclosure: I have no relation to these companies except that they are customers of my employer, I just think it's a cool service that many of us will enjoy.
