Save your inspiration in record time. ⌜da Vinci⌟ is a link-saving tool for Digital Renaissance. Don't just shove in Pocket any more -- you won't remember them. Save links with purpose in mind. This well-conceived minimalistic tool will serve you earnestly.
I like to use it alot, sometimes it can be more easier to use compare to other alternative

Hello @Yeechanko thanks for having created this nice tool.
A few things are not clear:
a) Where are these links saved?
b) How can I backup this work and not risk losing it?
c) Can I share privately or publicly my collections?
Many thanks
@yeechanko@robingood Hey Robin! Thank you so much for reaching out.
To answer your questions:
a) They gets stored on the AWS server and I'm trying my best to make the service security and privacy to meet the industrial standard. I'm planning to make it GDPR-compliant as well.
b) Currently there is no way, but the service won't be down as long as I live on this planet ;) Yes, I'm that determinant - I myself being a heavy user of the service. It won't go down any time soon. But for sure, I'm going to make the backup function available soon so that you feel safe and have a backup plan. IF I somehow have no choice but to shut down the service, I will make sure that I sent out emails to all of you and have a safe option for proper backup.
c) That's the next thing I want to do! Currently there is no higher concept above note and later. I'm going to make a concept called "Book"(name might change) containing multiple note and later items. You will be able to generate a book by tags, and manually edit the book with additional captions if you want to. Also, the ability to share(public/private) within the service will be arriving soon next month.
Lastly, if you have any feedback, please hit the feedback button at "Home" any time to make any suggestions. I'll reply all feedback with email within 24 hours. At some point, I'm also thinking to add a small community to vote for new features or report bugs.
The service is still fledgling so stay tuned!
Cheers!
Hello PH!👋😸 I am a maker from Korea.
Really nice to meet you all and get to introduce my product.
I surf a lot on the internet - for work, for personal matters, or out of pure curiosity or entertainment. And I always had this strong desire to save my own ideas or notes about them, so that they never fade away with time, and become my valuable resource for creation.
In order to achieve that, I've used several productivity tools from Pocket to Evernote Clipper (and many other stuff, Raindrop recently). They first seemed to meet my needs, but were later found to be over-complex or over-simplified - it didn't work out. For example, the links that I saved in Pocket several years ago - I couldn't even remember why I saved them and what it was about. They were all useless.
I've thought through this problem deeply for long, and came to a conclusion that none of existing tools asked the most important question - "Why do people save a link?". They are many scenarios when people want to save a link -- Do you want to read it later? Do you want to keep it with note for reference purpose? Do you want to visit them frequently? or do you want to share them with others?
With this question, I quit my job and started building a right tool by myself. I initially covered two important scenarios - "read Later", and "write Note", and made them ridiculously simple and smooth. And here it is on PH! I gave special focus on the shortcuts so that this "tool" speeds you up, not down. Also, I'm planning to add a few core concepts like social, favorites, organizing, etc., all of them conceived and built in a very thoughtful way.
Why do we save links in the end? I think we do it because we want get wonderful things done by attaining our better selves - to become more resourceful, more knowledgeable, and more experienced - just like great Leonardo da Vinci.
I hope you could give da Vinci a try and tell us how you liked it.
Be da Vinci!
