Don’t look back in anger¹
The Quest is over. A couple of weeks ago I wrote about how I have been looking for an alternative to del.icio.us’ bookmarking service, because they new guys running it wanted to rebuild it without keeping the old version available as well.
I found one. As already mentioned in the previous post, I have been thinking about giving pinboard a try. I have been afraid to spent money on a service I am not able to test anyhow upfront, but because there did not seem any good alternatives around I hadn’t checked already… what are my opportunities?
I signed up for about $10 a few weeks ago as far as I can tell at the moment, pinboard is the best alternative to the not-longer-available service of del.icio.us. (sigh!) If you are looking for a service like delicious used to be (i.e. working), you might want to give pinboard a try, too.²
