Feature Roadmap
This is a rough outline of what we have planned for the site. Things in gray haven't been implemented yet; things in black are live on the site.
Initial features:
- Default add bookmarks as private if desired
- Prepending a tag with a period makes it invisible to others
- Lightweight "to read" status for things you want to get to later
- Gmail-like star interface for tracking favorites
- Minimalist view (no tag chevrons!)
- Be the fastest bookmarking site around
- Tag intersections
Next up:
- Auto-expand certain URLs (URL shorteners, single-page versions of news articles)
- Auto-bookmark URLs from a Twitter account, Instapaper, Read it Later, delicious, etc.
- Ability to bookmark arbitrary snippets of text
- Show bookmarks by last date clicked
- Sort by date edited
- Bulk edit interface in search results
- Substring search
- Creative commons license your bookmarks if you want
- Store an archived copy of all links (paid service)
- Archive your Twitter stream
- Group bookmarking
- Public profiles for people who want them
- Downloadable archives for local backup
After that:
- Timeline widget to display bookmarking activity, constrain view by date.
- Geodata aware (links to google maps, geotagged photos etc. get a little thumbnail map, proximity search).
- Annotate a bookmark with additional URLs (native support for via:)
- Special features for certain kinds of bookmarks - images, video, wikipedia, flickr, news sites, blogs
- Bookmarks searchable by content
- Get notified by IM or email whenever someone bookmarks a URL or domain of interest
- Auto-post your bookmark to blog or twitter by using a special tag
- See all bookmarks under a domain or domain + path
- See a stream of URLs that are new to the site
- Get acquired by Yahoo and slowly grow useless
Cosmetics:
- User photos
- optional Tumblr-style view of your bookmarks (images expanded inline, large descriptions, less clutter)
