The reason I (and I suspect, many others) email stuff to themselves is that I expect my email to be there with me years from now. Websites like these come and go, and I wouldn't want to build up a collection that might just disappear a few months (or maybe a few years) down the line. I remember collecting links for years on del.icio.us before Yahoo decided to shut it down. Then I moved everything over (though it's nice that del.icio.us made it convenient to move my data over, it's still a hassle) to trunk.ly, but now they have been acquired by delicious.com and will be shutting down too. In the end, I find that email is more reliable and easier to search (searching on Gmail is pretty easy) One way such a website could be useful is if it did the job of emailing me the stuff I collect (or some other similar solution) so that I'm still guaranteed to have my collection, but it's possible to browse it in a better interface on this website. TL;DR - This is a well-done website, but I'll be hard-pressed to use it unless it also solves the reliability problem.
