Show HN: Kippt.com - Bookmarking made simple

[clay]

Saving a snapshot of the page you bookmark at the moment you bookmark it is totally awesome. Great work guys.

Kippt guys here. The current way of discovering, storing and reading web content & other information seems very random and scattered. We wanted to create a better way to save, manage, read and share things that are interesting or important for you.

Eg. As a designer, my library of UI screenshots, UX flows and articles are really valuable for me whenever I'm working on something. So having a library and finding new things is important to me.

This is our first attempt on the problem, focusing on bookmarking. We would love your feedback. We're currently working on Delicious importer, developer API and mobile version. If you're interested testing them out, hit us an email [email protected]

Need tagging service please. It will help me group my bookmark.

[dchuk]

why do no bookmarking services leverage collective intelligence to recommend urls/sites you're probably interested in based on your bookmarking history? You could turn a bookmarking site into an intelligent content discovery system

[jkaljundi]

A lot of what we do at http://utopic.me/ is solving exactly this issue, we do a lot of content discovery based on personalisation, tags and followed interests. Go check it out.

RWW also picked up on this http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3155766

Is it possible to parse page content when bookmarking and automatically assign it an appropriate category or pre-populate a few tags? I would find this highly useful, but I don't know how practical it would be to develop.

[jorde]

It just happens that my roommate works with this kind of research things. I'll ask him about it but it might be hard to accurately define tags. Might be useful with adding a extra level of accuracy to search.

Bug report: connect with twitter then use your email as your username when the auth redirects and a 500 is thrown.

[jorde]

Thanks, we'll look into this one

Sadly it doesn't play well with Chinese...I've typed in Chinese notes and then all turned into "???".

[olegp]

Would be nice if you made it easier for me to pick the list to save to.

[jorde]

In the web UI or extensions? We tried to simplify the flow and make bookmarking things fast (no need for tags, extra fields). So far it seems that most of the user base is sticking to Chrome extension but we're always looking to improve the experience.

Can bookmarks be private?

[jorde]

Yes, at the moment they are all private. We're introducing public features some time in the near future once we get the bare minimum product right.

[julesm]

what's different from diigo.com?

[jorde]

We're more focused on the bookmarking. I think we both are trying to solve a similar problem but with a different approach.

I feel like scoopinion.com will go into that direction.
