Interesting site. I signed up with a test account, but I can't get the "Create a new bookmark" link to work. The background is very dark and I almost couldn't see the search field because it's only one shade lighter. I couldn't figure out how to change my backdrop. I clicked a new color, but couldn't figure out how to save it. I currently use Pinboard.in and so far think it was worth the $7.XX I spent to sign up. How do you differ from them? How will you fight spam links? How do we know if you will never close down? Maybe you won't sell to Yahoo! but what about someone else? |

To change your backdrop there is an option 'change your backdrop' under 'create a new bookmark' - we can make that stand out more. You can then use some of our sample ones or upload your own - once clicked or uploaded it saves it automatically.
The first way we differ is that we are free, I appreciate people may be willing to pay for their service but for now we are free and all users who sign up now will not have to pay. Secondly is that I guess we are a bookmarking site aimed at more creative types. Pinboard is a great site functionailty wise and speed wise but you could argue it lacks in appearance. We hope that we offer a lot of the functionality Pinboard do but also you can bookmark in a nice looking site.
We have modertators who will look to fight spam and if we eventually add a fee for the service this should also prevent it.
I should rephrase - we will do everything in our power to ensure we won't close down.
Thanks for the feedback
