I build it for myself, as I like to read comments sections a lot, and sometimes I have interesting article and would like to read what people think about it. So now I add it to refjar and it fetches discussions from reddit and HN.<p>My public bookmarks list: <a href="https://refjar.com/u/mdoliwa/j/bookmarks" rel="nofollow">https://refjar.com/u/mdoliwa/j/bookmarks</a><p>I'd be very thankful for any feedback about tool/idea.
There’s a very useful service for me here beyond bookmarking. I often want do read something and wonder if there has been a Hacker News or reddit thread about it, but don’t necessarily want or need to bookmark it.<p>Any plans to decouple these? I feel like I remember a chrome extension from ages ago that showed hacker news comments for the current page, but I’ve searched a couple times and come up dry.
So far I've used Chrome extension "HN current page search" which finds both HN and Reddit discussions regarding the page you happen to be on (only if you click the extension does it check).<p>On the other hand once Delicious closed down I've settled in for <a href="https://raindrop.io/" rel="nofollow">https://raindrop.io/</a>
You can extend it to Twitter too, Arxiv Sanity has a 'Top Hype' section [0].<p>[0]: <a href="http://arxiv-sanity.com/toptwtr" rel="nofollow">http://arxiv-sanity.com/toptwtr</a>
man, last week i created <a href="https://peg.gy" rel="nofollow">https://peg.gy</a>. similar idea when it comes to rating and tagging but no intention of fetching online discussions. it's just a proof of concept for now.<p>i even created a similar bookmarklet to drag to the bookmark bar, but "Peg it" instead of "Jar It"
Great idea! Do you plan to make it paid at some point - referring to the Sign up and try for free note?<p>The biggest issue I have with bookmarking (apart from a better interface - which your app addresses) is link rot. I think adding a permalink (maybe by default?) would take this to the next level. Perma.cc has a nice API last time I checked :)
It's almost something I would use everyday, but I don't think bookmarks are the right approach. For example, because reddit comments tend to be higher quality than YouTube comments I use AlienTube for YouTube which replaces a YouTube video's comments with reddit threads (if they exist). I'd want a similar thing for just any article, without having to bookmark what I'm reading (or go to a separate site even).<p>AlienTube chrome extension: <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/alientube-for-youtube/opgodjgjgojjkhlmmhdlojfehcemknnp?hl=en" rel="nofollow">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/alientube-for-yout...</a>
What a wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing.<p>I especially like the ability to tag items and then search on them. Having a feature to edit tags after the fact, or search on them by entering a tag name as opposed to clicking on an existing tag would be really neat.<p>Bug report: I got a 500 when trying to empty the trash of 2 items.
This is awesome, I've wanted a tool that shows the HN/Reddit comments on articles for a while now but never got around to making it -- thanks for creating it!
I wwas thinking about the same concept a few days ago. thanks a lot for creating this.<p>Query: How often it rescans the link to check the new comments?
