Hi HN - I built this to satisfy a personal itch and learn more about chrome extensions. I always felt like I would set and forget bookmarks so I wanted a way to be reminded of them daily.

That, combined me with my love of newsletters, led me to create linkdrop. Thanks for checking it out!

This is the best approach to bookmarking I've seen yet.

I manage a multi-author blog, and I've tried lots of different ways to share story ideas with the authors. This provides an easy way to send out the day's reading.

Whatever revenue model you need to make this viable long-term, I hope it works out. I'd gladly pay a subscription price for this service.

Saving for when Safari support is added.

One idea for an integration would be with Pinboard. I use read later on pinboard, and would love to have those sent to me this way.

We at https://tefter.io are working on an alternative way to discover new content and organise bookmarks.

We started off with a similar idea to linkdrop but then thought there's more to bookmarking than that.

So a user may subscribe to a variety of feeds and users, https://tefter.io/~hackernews is of course one of them and have a personalised newsfeed. From the newsfeed posts can be bookmarked and kept in a "weekend reads" list. Bookmarks can be marked as read. However bookmarks can be easily added from any devise, since we offer browser extensions, mobile and desktop apps, slack integration. One can also import from pocket or pinboard.

Concerning newsletters, we thought they may be annoying. Imagine waking up on a Sunday to an email telling you to read stuff. We're trying to stay in the spirit of HN, sending as little notifications as possible. Our users have better things to do and their attention is important.

Nice idea, would love to see an example on the page (e.g. screenshot).

I hope you're considering a Firefox add-on next!

Discussion about a similar idea yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19954307

Really nice. I remember a previous show HN based on the same concept: https://mailist.app/

I really like simple tools like these. I forget what I bookmark all the time and IMO the chrome bookmarks bar is hard to manage... Nice work & great idea!

Small nitpick: The fields for sign up and create account are the same and should carry over if you switch between the two. For example I entered my email & pass to log in but mean to sign up and had to enter the info twice.

Nice work, I can see myself using this.

I have some ideas in this field and while I don't execute on them this looks like a good option. :D

Congratulations!

So this tool emails NEW content/articles from the saved bookmarks? Sort of RSS in newsletter form. Pretty cool idea.

hmm. it is not something i would use as person. but i would prefer to use this one as SaaS. Something like, some people are using my mobile app, getting interested with some products, i would popup and ask them "do you want me to email you the links, so you can better see the products later in your desktop"

This would be cool if it linked with Pocket. I like to book mark articles for later viewing on desktop.

Good job! Have you seen https://mailist.app before? Ot’s pretty the same:) I built it a year ago.

Great idea! I love me some newsletter too, so this should be pretty handy.

Minor nitpick: There's a type in the /about page:

> I want to change the time I recieve (->receive) my drop

Cool. Would be great if this allowed import of Chrome/Instapaper/Pocket bookmarks, since I have massive backlogs there.

This is a great idea! Any plans for a bookmarklet to get multi-browser support?

Oh nice! I was thinking something like this would be useful the other day.

I've wanted something like this for years. Thanks for making it [=

reminds me of http://getrevue.co which uses an extension to make it easier to create newsletters to send to others

I made a tutorial for something like this recently which you can use the Pocket extension with (https://www.makerpad.co/make/newsletter-generator-chrome-ext...) and the newsletter tutorial is here (https://www.makerpad.co/pro/automated-weekly-hourly-email-di...) but it's paywalled.

But you just set up zapier to link new bookmarks to airtable, then use the digest zapier trigger to weekly/daily send a list of all the new links sent to airtable via gmail or the zapier email action.

You can also link this with Mailchimp for a bigger newsletter too (which is in the paywalled tutorial)

That's a really cool approach - I am operating in a similar space [1] but I have not introduced any rediscovery options like that yet.

Now that's what I call really simple syndication!

Bookmarked. ...ummm...
