Licorize beta 1: Get links done

I started an account here and have had it open in my browser for about two weeks, waiting to dive in. But there's an awful lot of buttons and I still don't really understand how the website works.

The concept is great, the design is beautiful and it looks like a lot of thought and work has gone in to. A couple of things that make me take a step back are, like crux mentioned, a lot of buttons. I feel overwhelmed at the get go. If I'm bookmarking, I want to do it clean and fast. The second thing is just the mass integration of tools, almost as if its not so much bookmarking but more project management. Otherwise its great and I'm sure many people will use it.

&#60;nit&#62; Sign-up page username field. When I tab out of the field, I get the message of "This username is still available", ok, good to know, but I think it would be better if you only chimed in in case of an error. My first reaction before I squinted at my monitor to read the small text, was, uh-oh an error message. &#60;/nit&#62;<p>look forward to playing with this. I have a lot of workflow oriented around bookmarking.

really like it. i've wanted to do something like this myself for quite a while. one suggestion: your default avatars are going to alienate many non-techies ("what does that weird green and white pattern mean?"). IMHO, you'd be much better off going with a single default avatar that resembles a human (as facebook did).<p>i can promise you that if i showed your interface to my non-techie friends getting non-techie PhDs (a small but good market), they'd be freaked out by them. They are also distracting given the color palette of your interface.<p>i guess one final piece of feedback... perhaps lose the idea of a "strip" and call it something else. people don't like to learn new concepts :-)<p>don't mean to nitpick -- it really is a great launch product. congratulations on your beta!

Sounds a bit like Pearltrees. I'm likely going to add similar functionality to quippd as well at some point, but this looks very nice -- very sexy UI.

Great idea. The Safari Extension is very useful and is one of the few to have been published in the Apple Gallery.

watched your video to see if this was something i'd want to use, still have no clue! show a useage case in the video please, not just a bunch of pretty words about the service.

I can't get the bookmarklet to work in IE8. Any suggestions?

your sign-up email has a confirm link. It doesn't show up as a link in my email. I had to do a copy/paste.

looks beautiful and cool idea - will try it

sounds interesting, i'm gonna try it

"Watch the video..."<p>The video doesn't tell me anything. I cannot hear it. Captions would be nice.<p>Screenshots and text would be easier to do, and be just as informative. Keep the video, by all means, but don't assume video/audio is the only thing you should support.<p>Apparently it's a to-do manager. And takes bookmarks and Linked In pages (?) for Projects. Not entirely sure what this means. I guess bookmark sharing?<p>So... you share a bunk of bookmarks, and people have to "read them".<p>Screenshot I can't click on.<p>Use case: "You know I was doing some research about this marketing stuff, and I wanted to collect and share these bookmarks – I used this bookmarking tool, but then … my bookmarks are part of a more general idea, of a project, that is made not only of bookmarks – also of ideas, to-dos, notes… "<p>What? That makes no sense.<p>"It is a new and different way to share work."<p>Hrm, that actually makes some sense. Much better then "For the web worker tribe" whatever that means.<p>Oh, hey, killerstartups.com does a better job of explaining what this is all about.<p>So, in essence, I'm still not sure what you are offering besides a way to share bookmarks. Maybe the video explains it. The video I can't hear.

Nice the web thumbnails.. can't find the iphone client.
