USPS has been making some impressive technological changes quietly, since I did not see this advertised. A new "Package Dashboard" service, at my.usps.com, smartly pulls tracking numbers for inbound packages. What this means is anytime a package enters the USPS system bound for me, the dashboard will pick up this tracking and start showing it. It does away with "I'll send you tracking later today evening", and hopefully will reduce the GBU threads on missing tracking. For a recent deal on the exchange, I had the package tracking# in the dashboard as soon as it was scanned at the PO. You can add tracking# to the dashboard, and it is very mobile friendly (shows up neat on any mobile device). Impressive stuff.
I have been using it for the last few months, and barring a package or two, all packages show up on the dashboard. I believe it requires registering with my.usps.com (or login with your existing usps.com credentials and sign-up for this service).
