I saw a product like this once on Shark Tank.


Linklet caches the linked page, but doesn't cache referred files like stylesheets or images.

I think the cached text should be able to help the user to find another copy of the content online using Google.

I developed it without knowing Pinboard. Linklet is at least an alternate to Pinboard. It took a subtle difference approach towards the information management problem and may have a different goal.

What do you mean by "email increases metadata exposure". Your automatic signature in the email message? Linklet is not a social site. All bookmarks are private to yourself.


> What do you mean by "email increases metadata exposure".

Just that email is not encrypted, vs. a browser extension that uses HTTPS to send the bookmark to Linklet.


I'm using SMTP with SSL with my email client. I think that's encrypted.


I'm building a bookmark site as well and I'm looking for seed users.

If you have a such need, please try https://linklet.io/

It's not officially released yet so there might have problems.


I clicked, ready to chastise you for blatantly advertising on a competitor's thread, and for launching yet another business without charging users money.

I'll still chastise you for the blatant self-promotion on a competitor's thread, but kudos for actually charging money!


It's connected with the citizen number and it's applied to personal currency exchange only.

I think you may ask for a higher limit but usually you just use family accounts.

Paying with a multi-currency credit card has nothing to do with this limit.


So, the bank will report these currency exchanges (including overseas ATM withdrawals from an RMB account) to some central authority like PBOC, who will then combine it with info from other banks, and thereby know if I've breached the annual limit?


There is an real-time system shared by all banks. I can see my remaining quota immediately updated whenever I made an exchange.

In your example, if you have RMB in your China bank account and withdraw RMB overseas, these are no currency exchanges at all. It's not relevant to the $50k exchange cap.


I was reading some veteran sucide report, which immediately reminds me about this post.

Programmers are like soldiers, fighting in the battle we didn't choose.
