Small quibble about the video. This is not hacker-attentional grade. With the sound off, I lose interest when I fail to see content by the 5s mark. (Just some model bouncing around an apartment she could never afford on a model's salary.)

Small quibble about your comment. This product is not made just for hackers so how about we cut them some hacker slack and concentrate on actual praise or critique of the product/implementation? Cheers P.S. This would have been great as part of a product I made a couple of years ago. Nice job guys!

Everyone knows that with enough praise on HN, founders don't need to have thick skins to survive. Failure is the fault of those who criticize.

Or at least, that's what I'm getting from your comment.

I wish this was a mac app instead of a chrome extension. So many things I want to organise don't live on the web. Photos from my iPhone, screenshots I take with my mac, pieces of text I write, etc.

You can drag anything into the Evernote icon on a mac too.

I like this.

Now I don't want to sound like the guy who said "who needs dropbox when you can use rsync" but I actually just implemented something like this using rsynch and file folders to organize random clippings and notes in a similar way.

So far it's working pretty good. [1]

There is definitely potential for dragdis unfortunately it isn't possible to find out more without signing up which I am not willing to do. Or to login. And I am always concerned about not controlling the host that the data sits on.

[1] Objects are rsynced to a cloud host and they can then be viewed or retrieved from laptop, desktop etc.

Needs to say what it is on the homepage. When my only options are to play a video or "register with" then I always choose the third: close tab.

Exactly my thoughts. I spent about 3 seconds total on the page. Looked around, tried to scroll, then closed the tab. Don't make me play a video to find out what the product or service does.
