My incredibly unsophisticated, but surprisingly effective approach, is to share by email with myself (e.g. mail to myname+bookmark@mydomain.com).
Mail rules can then file them, I can add any relevant notes or hashtags to the mail body at the time I share the link, and the chronological ordering is helpful. Imap search is usually 'good enough' to turn up a half-remembered link or article.
I have been meaning to add an imap script to complement this with something like a simplepage archive, but have never got round to it.
- LanternLight83 4y agoI like this, and will be changing my mail situation in the near future, when I might take some inspiration c:
- icy 4y agoHah, you might like my project https://forlater.email https://forlater.email. :)
- nso 4y agoTook me a while to parse the name, forlater is a verb meaning "leaving" in Norwegian. "Jeg forlater deg" = "I am leaving you"
- jfk13 4y agoHah, to me it looked like an ASCII-fied version of the Swedish word verb meaning "forgive". "Jag förlåter dig" = "I forgive you".

- throwaway23234 4y agosmall critical comment, if btc is not preferred, remove the option, or don't say that. That may be meaningful to you, but not to anyone else.
- joebob42 4y agoIt was meaningful to me. To me it meant "the other options are better for me, but I'll take payment in btc if that's the best option for you. Here's the link for that" Not sure what the harm is?
- videogreg93 4y agoFor the record, just tried this with my protonmail and the response went straight to spam.
- aizatto 4y agoThis is a really cool idea! edit: feature/request Scenario, if I save a link from HackerNews, I like to save the submission of it as well. I wonder if I send a HackerNews link to forlater.email; it can parse the article and remind me I got it from HackerNews. For example, I'd submit "https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31852384 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31852384" and in the email, it'd contain: 1. HackerNews link (so i can review the comments as well) 2. Original article link and content food for thought, but love your product idea
- icy 4y agoI don’t see why not—this seems easy enough. And thanks for checking it out! :)
- blaydator 4y agoEmail rocks for this. I have developed an app to email myself in one click : https://boomerang-app.io https://boomerang-app.io
- moozeek 4y agoThank you for making Boomerang. I use it all the time on my tablet and phone.
