Are there any plans to releasing a desktop app? It would be nice to combine the current use case with a "chat with my documents/pdfs" flavor as well.

Gabe/Akash will tell you their plans I'm sure, but I'm already using it to import PDFs and other documents via the web, so I don't feel the need for anything on the desktop. (A local version would be stupendous for client confidentiality, but I'm not holding my breath for that.)

Could it work with bookmarklet as like what pinboard did? Also any support for importing from pinboard archives?

Thanks! Right now don't have automatic integrations for those yet but we do allow you to individually save emails and docs. Full integrations and sync for Drive and Email coming soon!

So at present one needs to export a Google doc as PDF first? But then it won't have a stable URL, seems to me. Is there a way to upload (e.g. drag and drop -or- using a local folder) a PDF directly?

It's part of the roadmap, likely releasing in Q2 Is that your browser of choice?

Safari is my current everyday browser, but anything that isn't based on almost anything modern that isn't tainted by the chrome should be fine. Just like IE 6 I refuse to touch it if I can at all prevent it. (Feel free to join in folks. We can do this, IE was much better entrenched at its worst.)
