clipmarks: new and improved!

Filed under: folksonomy

Clipmarks has yet again added some innovative features to its product and redesigned the whole interface…I think it looks much less cluttered and is very easy to get around…I like it a lot.

Basically it is similar to the 3 pane email view…click on a tag/folder, middle column shows a list of entries, and clicking on an item will show it in full on the right column…you can now also easily add comments there and then.

Besides adding comments you can now also vote for an item by “popping it”…now you can browse by most popular item according to votes (pops).

Browse items by most recent clipmark, most recently commented on clipmark, most recently popped clipmark…or a combination.

Next I’d like to sort items the same way but based on popularity
eg. most clipped clipmark, most commented on clipmark, most popped clipmark (showing the number of votes)…also sorting this by the last hour, day, week, etc…

And what about the view, it’s all in real-time (previously only the comments had a real-time view), this means you don’t have to refresh the page, you’ll notice that new entries magically appear…you can turn this off by clicking pause. The pause button will become more needed when clipmarks is more heavily used, if it becomes anything like del.icio.us (livemarks), an item you’re looking at moves to the bottom of the page in 2 seconds.

See an earlier post, and more about the newest features at the clipmark blog (especially the new print feature).

  1. Thanks John! Regarding your request - “Next I’d like to sort items the same way but based on popularity eg. most clipped clipmark, most commented on clipmark, most popped clipmark (showing the number of votes)…also sorting this by the last hour, day, week, etc… - i expect to have that live by the end of the week. It’s one of our first priorities now.

    I sure hope the pause button becomes needed one day :)
