I noticed that Jolicloud launched something similar the other day if anyone wants to compare <a href="https://drive.jolicloud.com" rel="nofollow">https://drive.jolicloud.com</a>

Alright, there's one more thing I'd like to say, feedback wise.<p>If I add a webpage, and that webpage changes url, or gets removed for whatever reason, that page also automatically seems to get lost in collections.me - adding a snapshot/saving of that page on collecting would be great.<p>I also tried doing this for an image on my server. I removed the image, but I still see it (which is good). I wonder however if the image has been saved, or if it's just a cache in your webkit viewer?<p>Ps. Please don't take all my feedback as negativity. What you've built is a great start! Well done.

I actually wanted to build something similar, since I spread things through bookmarks, files in my Downloads folder &#38; links in my emails. I'm a very hectic person and needed something like this!<p>However, it just doesn't work here it seems. Shift+cmd+c'ed a webpage, and Collections did mention it put that item into my inbox. However, when I went to my inbox, nothing was there. Tried again, same problem. Clicking on the plus button at the bottom of the app didn't do anything either, I was hoping I could add something manually instead... Running on 1.8.3 here. :(

I've watched the video, it intrigued me and left me with these questions: Can you put an item in multiple collections at once? Can a collection be inside another collection?

I tried the app out of the other day. I'm not sure if its still in beta, but the app lacks a lot of polish. And as of typing this it just crashed.<p>Definitely has potential though, but I might wait a little while to I consider using it again.

Looks great! This is definitely useful. Only two things, when I go to add a service, dropbox is not appearing as an option for me. Also, it was not immediately clear to me how I would delete a collections folder. I kept trying to right click the icon in the left panel but I now see that if I click My Collections there is a minus botton at the bottom.

Hmm looks interesting.<p>I have a question: does it actually download the content I bookmark or is it just links? For example, does it download the youtube video to my local folder or is it just link to the video and if I would want to see it next year, I will have to hope the video is still there?

Question: Does Collections expose any developer interfaces? I can imagine a whole ecosystem of apps/plugins that build on it: alternate visual presentations, data mining, sync, bulk transfer, backup, advanced search, etc.

Looks cool. One question though; you say "share anything with anyone", does that mean I can clip text, links and images from anywhere on the web, or only from the services you mention on the landing page?

Looks amazing, I need to upgrade from 10.6 as well :( I noticed on the site that the "Download for free" button at the bottom says "10.7 and above", which needs to be corrected?

Any plans to add Pinboard integration? (I reckon Pinterest integration would also be relevant)
