Here's my pitch for a federated bookmark manager and why it can make the indie web stronger.

Introducing linkblocks, the Federated Bookmark Manager

@raffomania intrigued to explore. So noted is a future feature, like including a description? I’ve bookmarked from furl through del.icio.us to pinboard and descriptions are crucial for me.

@cogdog Yes! A previous version already contained notes for bookmarks, but I wanted to improve it so you could link from a single bookmark to multiple notes and vice-versa, so I ripped it out. If you have thoughts on how it should work, I'm all ears!

@raffomania I can only speak from a user perspective. I guess I could see the bookmark title and link as like the Mastodon Post, and any notes perhaps attached like a reply, with options to have that public/private.

For more I want to have reliable search on my own bookmarks, which I do not have in Mastodon (search is a challenge).

@cogdog Having replies on the post is a pretty neat idea. That makes them individually boostable as well.

I'm currently working on search, that will be ready soon :)
