Ask HN: What bookmarking service do you use?

12 pointscarlsednaoui11y ago9 comments

Hi HN,

I'd love to get your input on bookmarking services. I've been using Kippt (http://kippt.com/) for over a year but, as the service has evolved, it's becoming slower and clunkier.

Here's what I'm looking for:

- Quick way to bookmark

- Ability to tag pages

- Easy way to search by tag or page title

- Nice to have: full text search based on the page's content

A couple options out there that I haven't tried (let me know if you have):

- http://pinboard.in/

- https://gimmebar.com/

Looking forward to your thoughts / recommendations!

I'm a fan of Kifi: https://www.kifi.com/

The chrome extension is very handy to bookmark websites and even parts of the page, message/email pages to other people, and add tags, all in the same UI.

I use a Trello board that I add links to. I tag them and sometimes add a little description so I know why I want to get back to it. Oh, and I also use my web browser.

Command line? Nice.

I use a git repository to host a flat-file with some javascript magic for browsing:

Pocket for content that I'm going to read later that day, or later that week. Evernote for everything else.

Pinboard and Evernote, formerly Delicious. Pinboard is still the current hotness, as far as I know.

Delicious still.
