What do you see as existing alternatives? I can say, there are Instapaper and Pinterest, for example, but they both differ from this one.

Yes, on the surface it seems to be similar to Pinterest, Instapaper, Evernote and possibly even plain old bookmarks. A comparison between the services would be helpful.

  For text, http://readon.ly/ http://readon.ly/ is somewhat similar.

It's not a web service, but I recommend and use Scrapbook[1] to achieve similar ends (aside from the sharing part). [1]https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scrapbook https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scrapbook

I would say Snip.it would be a good alternative to this, especially since I already use it a fair amount for sharing and finding web content. I'm interested in signing up to see the difference though.

readability has a new service called http://readlists.com/ http://readlists.com/ which i just started trying and it seems pretty nice, basically it lets you create a list of of urls then export them as an epub/mobi and email it directly to your phone/tablet.

Gimme Bar (https://gimmebar.com/ https://gimmebar.com/) was the first service that came to mind. That's just based on my initial impression of Clipboard. I haven't used it yet.

Pocket (formerly Read It Later) You need an ipad client, thats where a lot of content consumption happens, especially long form. One feature which i really like about Pocket, is it saves a parsed copy locally on the ipad. So i can "save"/ clip a bunch of links/articles, i want to read & then i can read them later, even when i dont have internet access (e.g. on a tarin/metro) Very impressed with the product. All the best.

  Thank you tuxguy. We currently don't have apps for iPhone and iPad but your feedback is certainly useful and we will consider it for our future product roadmap.
