Love where this is going. What are some of the key use case, or too early?

Also, what did you use to record the video, it looks really slick?



Some use cases that I'm already using it for even in the limited state:

* Making topic-focused lists of articles. e.g. researching a particular topic just grab a bunch of URLs and stick them in a table

* Real estate research - grabbing a bunch of locations and adding them to a table, but where price and image are auto- grabbed (and adding notes)

* Making a list of gift ideas

* Making a running list of music I want to check out

These are mostly simple bookmarking use cases.

What I *really* want to be able to do is publish these lists (either as HTML or as JSON endpoints) and collaborate on them with others! But that requires building a server and login etc that all feels a bit beyond my coding skills.....

The video I made with Tella: https://www.tella.tv/ - very neat


This is one of those really simple ideas that's really exciting - making me think of a lot of "what-ifs". Thank you for sharing.

I'd love for this level of functionality - but auto-sync to Google Sheets (my platform of choice for "more than a few rows that I might need to share") (or like I mentioned elsewhere, maybe Braintool, for further manipulation/browsing in Emacs/org-mode).

Maps support would be really cool to see the results in tabular form as well as where they are.

I also noticed it doesn't notice if you add the same site twice - so instead of editing an existing entry, it lets you create a second one (maybe both options are needed).

A browser extension has some key advantages - getting around some security issues like you mentioned, but you can also make the icon for the extension reflect when you've already stored data for a URL (Braintool, which I mentioned elsewhere, does this).
