I would love a browser add-on to go with this to gather up the links as you browse. I used to do this with mailephant (now defunct) that allowed me to queue up links and snippets of text related to links in a nice list to email along with an email template. good work and definitely useful.

Hey that's a great idea! I never built an add-on for a browser so it will make a good challenge. Maybe for this week-end ^^

  Yeah its not that bad, here is a simple bookmarklet example that grabs current url and posts it to your endpoint (mailephant in this case). Might be a good first step. javascript:q=location.href;if(document.getSelection)%7Bd=document.getSelection(); %7Delse%7Bd='';%7D;p=document.title;void(open('https://mailephant.email/views/curate.html? showtags=yes&url='+encodeURIComponent(q)+'&description='+encodeURIComponent(d)+'& title='+encodeURIComponent(p),'Mailephant','toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=700'));

    You just save that as a new bookmark after updated your endpoint and you can gather that data quickly.

      Hello! This thread is no longer on the front page, but just to keep the few people still passing by, I finally created a browser extension! It completes the site :) https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/multy/ https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/multy/ I'll send it to Google for Chrome as well

    I had to add some newlines to your JS because it was borking the page layout. Sorry; it's our bug. One of these days we will fix it.

You might be looking for something like One-Tab.[1] In addition to saving groups of tabs, you can share links to the groups of tabs. That being said, it may not 100% fit your use-case. For reference, the original author did a Show HN when they released One-Tab.[2] [1]: https://www.one-tab.com/ https://www.one-tab.com/ [2]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5356823 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5356823

https://histre.com/ https://histre.com/ might be what you're looking for. You can save your browsing history (tree-style) via open-source browser extensions, take notes on the links, add highlights, and share them as a notebook either publicly or privately. For example, here is a public notebook: https://histre.com/pub/notebooks/zk4s2695/product-road-map-tools/ https://histre.com/pub/notebooks/zk4s2695/product-road-map-t...
