Hi Brad, Thanks for the thoughtful ideas! For now the integration points are: 1. front page 2. individual user's tag search (e.g....

HI! I looove the +,-,~ simpy have. ...that I wish I could also use them when search all the Simpy bookmarks... Are there any plans in that direction?...
Hi, ... You mean you want + _ ~ in the right column, next to "related tags", for example: http://www.simpy.com/links/tag/funny%20AND%20video/s=c ... What do...

Is there a way to import bookmarks with tags? Initially, I would like to move to Simpy from Kaylon PowerMarks bookmark manager, where all my bookmarks have...
In my 'links details' the item 'times clicked' is not updated. Or must I wait a certain period of time? And is the 'usage frequency' ordering coupled with...
Hi, ... There's no need to wait, it's all real-time. I just tested it with one of my links and saw the click count go up by one. The only situation that I...

Hi, ... I know, I use tabs all the time. Unfortunately, I think this behaviour is inherent in Firefox. Perhaps you can ask on any of these newsgroups: ...

Otis, I'll preface this with the statement that I know we as users don't have any particular right to this information; however, I for one am curious to know...
I have a question about notes - first, thanks for updating it so that you bounce back to the page you have clipped the note from. That really kicks ass. ...
Hello, ... You are not alone - I'm curious, too! :) ... This is very unlikely. Even if I were to decide to stop running Simpy, I'd let people know well ahead...

Hi, ... Ok, good! ... I think it's a matter of HTML formatting. A few months ago I talked about "rich-document" Notes (as opposed to just plain text). That's...

... Ah ha - is the lack of word wrap a mac only thing at this time? Rich text sounds pretty nice, but is there any chance of getting a word wrap thing...
Hi, ... I'll have to think about the table option. I recall having things wrap at the very beginning and then deciding against it. I just can't recall what...

... Exactly my thinking (the "why not just" part that is...). Of course, I haven't spent much time actually thinking about it. So, uh, it's kinda SHALLOW...
... I think a public comment associated with a particular link would be much more interesting. I could look at the link history and see everyone's comments...
Never mind. I'm a new user. I just realized that notes of public links are viewable in the link history. Instead of thinking of myself as an idiot, I'll think...
I also think tag clouds have very limited usefulness. But Hot Tags and Hot Links would give me something to click on when I'm just browsing for something...
... I like tag clouds; they seem to be a step away -- or forward -- from a list paradigm: I can find things alphabetically and also see how important the item...
The shared title is at the whim of whoever first adds the link. I've already come across a couple of links with bad titles like "INVALID STRING" and...
... I agree with Don here; user /can/ change the title if s/he wants. Doubt they'll type in "untitled" -- ~Peter Hummers == My people are destroyed for lack of...
Hi, ... I'd second that. Simpy is not only social bookmarking but also, and for me it's mainly, personal infor management. And having my blog posts together...

I would like access to my bookmarks for those times when Simpy is unavailable. The simple solution would be to periodically export links to a local HTML file....
Hi Don, ... Hopefully the times during which Simpy is unavailable is and will be minimal. XSLT would probably work, but I have to admit I never fell in love...

FYI. I just stumbled upon a site that implements this public note feature: BlinkBits. It seems very much like a blog - except the focus is on the topic, rather...

After hearing your reasoning, I've changed my mind about tag clouds. They combine both the alphabetic and frequency tag lists into one list. I like it. ... ...
