Why do I need to login to look at your plans and pricing?

jorde2• 13 years ago

Sorry about that, we'll be moving that to a public page soon (now part of settings, hence login requirement)

Hey is there any way I can import all of my evernote stuff into Kippt? I'm willing to try Kippt out, but not willing to copy over 100's of bookmarks or use 2 services. Thanks!

The image based collections threw me at first - I like textual information in lists, not tiles. But then I saw the phone pad like icon (top right hand corner). Tiles for image collections and lists for articles - w00t! :D

Isn't www.evernote.com the "Evernote for The Web"?

Who are Kippt's main competitors?

I think it's Pinterest, but I haven't been able to figure that out yet.

Pinboard, keeeb, Evernote, [Snip.it], del.icio.us, Pinterest to name a few of the image + article ones. Lookwork, Clipboard, icebur.gs, Image Spark, ConceptBoard, et al for image-only bookmarking.

I'm not looking to rain on your parade or anything. I see the value of this product, but I have a question.

Why did you use an inbox for the user's data? I reason it is not the right definition. People hate the inbox. It actually turns them off from using products/services. I've tested it and mentioning the word inbox makes conversions plummet.

I would call it collections, queue, stack, or something else. Even panel.

I do like the process to join in, but I would test the flow through which people create accounts. I'd have them start saving stuff first, then requiring a password to save the data.

Anyhow, good luck

My guess is that inbox allows people to add more to kippt because it decreases the mental effort required to file the item into the correct tag/folder. Its a dumping ground were you add things and promise to sort later.
