Ask PG: Can we have a feature to save links in Hacker News?
It is often near impossible to find useful links back after a few days.
Reddit has a feature where you can save a link. It would be very helpful to have this same functionality in HN. I know there's heaps of services like Del.icio.us and Ma.gnol.ia, but in the vain of keeping things simple.
- Harkins 18y agoInstall the del.icio.us browser extension and tag 'em YCHN. Using an existing service that works well is simpler than cloning the site piece-by-piece.
- pius 18y agoEven that's superfluous. Just go here and you've got your saved links: http://news.ycombinator.com/saved?id=Harkins http://news.ycombinator.com/saved?id=Harkins (replace Harkins with your username)
- yters 18y agoAre you talking about comment links? Upvoting saves normal submissions, which is part of the philosophy.
- spif 18y agoWow, I've never seen that in my settings. Ok.. so it's already there, I guess that changes my question to: "Can we have a top level link to our saved articles?"
- goofygrin 18y agoOr, there's this thing... that most browsers already have built in. Bookmarks? :D
