Private beta opens

Stufflinker logoWell, at long last I managed to iron out the creases late last night and I can now to announce that the Stufflinker private beta is now open. The site is still very much a work in progress, but the core functionality works now: new users can join via SMS, and existing users can of course log in and manage both their mobile and web stuff.

With this early release, the following are among some of the features available (but only when logged in):



Detailed listing of mobile messages which click through to a tab enabled web linker










Recently added web stuff using the stufflinker bookmarklet








Tag Cloud of "my web stuff"









If you want to help me test the site, please use the contact form. Thanks!

stufflinker begins

Stufflinker has been on my idea shelf for a while. Maybe 3 years, if you include all the thoughts I've had about saving ideas.

The basic premise hasn't actually changed very much: People have ideas, lots of them. We also see lots of stuff out there in the world which helps these ideas along. Usually, especially if you're me (ie. memory like a sieve), these ideas go into the mix but the detail can get lost.

So the idea is this: why should I be limited to bookmarking when I'm at home. Why can't I make notes while I'm out and about? Why can't I use the most ubiquitous device I own - my mobile phone - and use it to keep track of my ideas?
