@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 cant see changing from my current process of managing my bookmarks in Pinboard (or rainddrop or equivalent), but I can see this as maybe a means of discovery.

I have 14000+ bookmarks accrued since 2004 ;-)

@cogdog We're planning to build importers for common bookmark managers, so you could also use it to publish some of your bookmarks on the fediverse :)

@raffomania Thanks for responding! I'm game to be a tester.
