WHAT IT'S NOT: Just a current page bookmark app. WHAT IT DOES DO is add a gold star UI to save in-page links intelligently to Pocket (http://getpocket.com, formerly Read It Later).
- Micah
SMARTER SAVING: 1) Links are of course saved, but the post title / tweet content / search result text are also saved. 2) @twitter handle, display name on Friendfeed, and name on Google+ are saved as tags along with the link.
- Micah
WHICH SITES DOES IT WORK ON? Twitter, Google+, Friendfeed and Google Search are all currently supported. More to come. Each can be enabled/disabled in the option settings.

Letting my friendfeeders know first.

All my Chrome users out there, if you could check it out for me that would be tastic!

*BUMP* for morning crew.

Hey Micah, can you explain the purpose of this again? Is it mostly a large-scale link saver (so I can grab external links from feeds and put them in one place)? It's not intended as a self-archiving tool (for non-linked content within feeds) is it?
- Meg VMeg
Meg, I'll answer more thoroughly later today, but basically, you can save a post/tweet/Google search result -- the URL mainly, but the username and title are saved too. And you get a hovercard style Popup of your recent links.

Meg, here are some more screenshots: http://wittman.org/golden-... —more questions welcome. :)

Thanks!

Ok, I just made this screencast http://friendfeed.com/micahwi... demo tonight—let me know how well it helps explain GVPLK. Thanks!

Yo Micah -> https://api.del.icio.us/v1...? ;)

Thx Micah!

Welcome Shawn, thanks!

AJ, are you a hard core delicious user? I'll take a look at their API, thx.
- Micah
I still use them from time to time. Not hardcore anymore.

What's springpad's niche?

Installed and watching the video. So ... the idea is that it will save links from Twitter, G+, and search *to* Pocket?
- Laura Norvig
hmm, my saves do not show the plus user (or even post title) when I go back to Pocket. Ahh, maybe because I am bookmarking it from a circle I created that only has myself in it (my own gplus "stuff to save" circle). Yep, that was it. Oooh, I am loving Pocket already ...
- Laura Norvig
Love the play-by-play -- thanks for the feedback, Laura. :)
- Micah
Any thoughts or requests from anyone? I'm working on making the new Pocket account signup possible right from the GVPLK options page—but if there's something more pressing would love to hear about it. THX

Is there any firefox addon for the same purprose? Thanks

Sorry, Erwin, this extension happens to be Chrome only.
