/ About /

Pinboard is a fast, privacy-focused bookmarking service founded in 2009. It allows users to save bookmarks from any browser, sync with services like Instapaper and Pocket, and optionally archive full copies of bookmarked pages with full-text search. There are no ads or trackers; the service is funded by a modest annual user fee.

/ How it works /

Users pay a yearly fee to bookmark pages from any browser, sync with other read-later services, and optionally archive full copies of pages with full-text search.

/ Who it's for /

Privacy-conscious individuals who want a fast, no-nonsense bookmarking tool
