I was a long time delicious user, and I like having my data up in the cloud. I think what I prioritize the most is having a good UX and my links being available everywhere.

minor thing: your signup password fields should be of type password so they don't show up in plain text.

So maybe you'd like to share what do you think of LStack UX?

Regarding password fields - that was conscious choice not to mask them. Do you think it could have negative impact on users acquisition?

Some notes as I go through the app:

The bookmarklet popup is spot on. Everything I need, nothing I don't.

The home tab shows signup info even when I'm logged in, should hide after I'm logged in.

For passwords, I think it'd be best to hide them because it's the convention, and add a js link to "show password" for users who want to see it.

Thanks for the advices!

How about the service itself? Do you find the smart tags (parameters attached to bookmarked link) useful in your use cases?

interesting idea, but haven't formed an opinion yet. Tagging's always such a personal preference. I like hierarchical tags (e.g. code:ruby), but that's just me

I think of them as parameters rather than tags, maybe should change the name in descriptions (using "smart tags" can be misleading).
