#72I watched the video and still have No Idea. Is it an app? Is it a browser plugin? Where does it store the data? Does it sync between machines?
Re: Dragdis – Drag and drop anything anywhere
#73That's exactly what I was looking for - create lists by just dragging including videos. Safari's reading list is cool but I really don't like Safari. Evernote's cool but way too costly to add an item to a list. This one's really simple, really like it.

#74This looks like exactly what I've been looking for for as long as I can remember. Awesome, and awesome name. It would be great if it could integrate with Pocket, so my Pocketed links show up in Dragdis too.
Integrations with Dropbox, Gdrive, Tumblr, Evernote are coming. Definitely will look into Pocket as well :)
You should work some sort of "drag and drop to MediaCrush" thing out. Hosts video, audio, images with minimal BS, and gives you a link to share. Open source and has a great API, too. Disclaimer: I helped make it.

#75I really wish there was a non-video summary on the landing page. It looks good, but FWIW here is free data on my 'acquisition funnel': Saw post on HN, opened it and the HN comments each in their own tabs. Got confused at the website not explaining what it is (did not want to watch a video) and closed site tab. Skimmed through the HN comments, saw enthusiasm, reopened site tab. Watched video. Signed up. edit: Have to…
same for me : at work youtube ( and social sites as well ) is filtered so I have no way to know what the app (is it an app ?) is for and who is for (smartphones is it ?).
From the HN comments, I can infer it's some kind of neat way to save web-based datas, but I'm still in the dark.

#76Needs 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.

#77Anyone else tried dragging the buttons on the landing page ? Spoiler: Not draggable:(.
I tried dragging everything on the page...because I didn't want to watch a video. I ended up caving and hitting play when it didn't work.

#78Could it fallback to the original event?
say that I have other drag and drop extension on firefox like QuickDag, it does open link in new tab, google the text, download images... etc.
when I drag a link and drop anywhere besides Dragdis sidebar, then it should fallback to Quickdrag and opne the link in new tab, not just cancel the drop event.

#79Small 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!
Right. If HN is so sensitive to critique that something introduced as a 'small quibble' -- a marketing tip, from someone who has been there -- then you, HN, have jumped at least one shark, and probably several other marine macrofauna.

The landing page is very confusing. I didn't want to watch the video or register just yet, so I spent a good 5 mins trying to drag the buttons on the page, expecting it to be a demo. Didn't work, thought the demo was either broken or it didn't work with my browser. Almost left and gave up before reading the comments here and decided to register and give it a try
