I’ve been a big fan of isnoop.net’s Universal Package Tracking interface. You punch in a tracking number from any shipper and it maps the results to a Google map so you can see exactly where your stuff is sitting.
Apparently, the UPT became popular enough to spin off into its own site, because it is now
Boxoh.com.
Those with a healthy sense of paranoia won’t balk too much at handing out their package tracking numbers. Those with an unhealthy sense of paranoia should probably just stick to using the courier hosted tracking sites.
