I used dragdis and/or evernote before that. I'm gonna try this new thing but I'm scared it will be like the others and just become a place where I put things I'll never read.

* I like it better than dragdis, you don't have to drag anything to save it! Which is a pain on a laptop.

* It's too hidden and like other of its kind I might forget about it and never read what I put there.

2 things I'd like to see in a bookmarking service.

1. Have it email me nightly or weekly recapping what I've bookmarked.

2. At some point (perhaps in the recap) show me if any of my friends have also bookmarked the same thing (perhaps from Facebook or g+ graph data).

I could live without #2, and might want to opt-out - there are some things I bookmark I wouldn't want other people knowing about, but some things I wouldn't mind.

" Have it email me nightly or weekly recapping what I've bookmarked."

Yes, yes, yes please.

Bingo. I stopped using bookmarking services after finally admitting this to myself.

I also had this nagging feeling from having a list of "to read" links that I never read -- like having a long list of "to dos" that you never get around to doing, it makes you feel bad.

And whenever I did make the time to read some of these things, they were disappointingly insignificant.

"I did make the time to read some of these things, they were disappointingly insignificant."

That is what I get with using Pocket. I put stuff in there that when I get around to reading I think "was THIS what I was keeping that browser tab open for all this time?"

I think that we want to read those things because we are procrastinating doing something else. Like what I am doing with writing this comment :).
