What advantage does this have over WorldBrain Memex, Bublup, Raindrop, or any of the dozens of smaller bookmark organizers already out there?

H! PageMarker is different in the sense that you are able to organise with tags and folders, not just one or the other. It also solves the problem of revisiting your bookmarks by sending you an email newsletters on the days and time you pick . That way you are regularly reminded to come back and actually read the things you save for later

It also helps with annotation without modifying the webpage. The annotation based bookmark apps out there modify the actual content of the page whereas PageMarker keeps your notes and comments isolated from the page. The browser extension will allow you to add and view your pages side by side

The first section of Raindrops website explains that you can organize with collections, tags AND filters, as does Memex.

it's prettier than pinboard, but that's almost a bad thing, in that pinboard's game is "brutal practicality even if we have to do it web 0.9 style"

what's the API like?

Hi! there is no API at the moment. This is an open beta :)

Youd better make some browser extensions

Already working on it :) https://www.loom.com/share/5077f3b7ccb544b4b5b7a289c71310c2

You can also make the web-app a shareTarget so it's on the Android menu

Hi! Thanks for the tip. Will look into it.

OT.

I read this as PageMaker. The only computer class offered at my highschool was Desktop Publishing, taught in Pagemaker.

Never heard of PageMaker before will look it up. Hope you give PageMARKER a try though :)

Erstwhile Aldus Pagemaker was a popular Print Page Layout tool from the 90s (may be even the 80s). It was bought by Adobe. It competed against QuarkXPress.

Pagemaker was the first killer app for the Mac

I read it the same way and thought they were going to be in trouble from Adobe.
