Salyangoz is a realtime link sharing platform. Comparing to Pocket or any other bookmark saving tools, Salyangoz is not a bookmark saving tool. Its behavior is Snapchat-ish. With the browser extension, you will be able to share your links on Salyangoz. It allows you to have a cleaner approach to view links up-to-date and daily. Your sharings will be available to see for 24 hours by your followers. On the Popular and Recent menus, you'll see most viewed links and most recent links in the 24 hours. It uses Twitter to register and login.

@fkadev Would be cool as an extension to mobile safari, you know how Bing has the little translate page button in safari (by the add to homepage button). Thoughts?

@fkadev Nice concept, but why links are limited for 24 hours?
Fatih Kadir Akın
@baddesigner Because we consume the internet. Old links are old, nobody wants to see obsolete and old content, which makes your history a garbage. If you are using a bookmark saving utility, you can realize that most of them are obsolete and garbage now. Salyangoz is not a bookmarking platform, it's a "up-to-date" link sharing platform. Salyangoz is a "living" platform, but not a database.

@oliviachang292 Salyangoz means snail in Turkish.
Olivia Chang
@jackelliott Oh, thanks for the info :)
Fatih Kadir Akın
@oliviachang292 Salyangoz means "Snail" in Turkish and Greek. Snails look like salivating things. "Saliva" derived from "salion" in Greek, means "saliva, spit". "Saliongas" in Greek means "the salivating, snail". The Turkish word of it is derived from Greek: "Salyangoz". That's why the logo is a snail :)

I like the simplicity and the ephemerality is interesting but why purge the link, @fkadev?
Fatih Kadir Akın
@rrhoover As I mentioned above, it's not a link saving platform. You are generating a "what's new to me" content and share with your followers. There are many bookmark saving platforms, even Chrome has bookmarks with sync feature which is basically collecting bookmarks for you to use everywhere. Our main concern is not to collect links but share them with your followers, also cleanness is very important for the user. We do not want any "garbage".
Fatih Kadir Akın
@rrhoover Also if a link is popular enough, you'll always see it since everybody sharing it. When it become obsolete, it's naturally become a garbage and you won't see it anymore. Basically Salyangoz is a "living" platform, links have their lifes.
Ryan Hoover
@fkadev got it! That makes sense for sharing timely things like news which becomes outdated quickly.

how does Salyangoz set itself apart from Refind? compared benefits / strengths?
Fatih Kadir Akın
@bay_tantuni I actually don't see any relations between Salyangoz and Refind. Salyangoz is not a bookmark saving tool, it's link sharing platform. It's not about collecting bookmarks, it's about sharing your visited links with your friends, daily.
Oytun Emre Yucel
@fkadev refind is deceptive by name but functionally works the same way.. you can categorize your links by tags and have the follower / following link between users in a similar fashion..
Oytun Emre Yucel
@fkadev also, are you planning on aggregating the results on the popular page, and if so, who will be the link owner? for example, at the moment a link is shown 3 times with different number of views (depending on whose shared link was clicked how many times).. let's say couple users got extremely excited about a new release and salyangoz'd it, and that link got viewed by each user's followers enough to get on the populars list. wouldn't overburdening the populars tab with the same link make it slightly obsolete?
Fatih Kadir Akın
@bay_tantuni You are completely right! We know this issue and have a few ideas to fix this. The best option is to show only one link with the most viewed count. So you'll be seeing just one link without any duplications.

@fkadev perfect! best of luck with the project, and many kudos :)
SSS
I have no idea how to add a link 🙄
Fatih Kadir Akın
@famouslabs You have to use browser extension. Soon you'll be able to add from homepage. Now you can add by using Chrome Extension: https://chrome.google.com/websto...
Kazuya Nakamura
@famouslabs It seems adding feature works only with Chrome extension. https://chrome.google.com/websto...
Fatih Kadir Akın
@kzynakamura @famouslabs Yes, for now we just have Chrome extension. Other extensions are on their way :) Extensions are open sourced, so you can add new ones :) https://github.com/SalyangozMe

I like the way you can easily share ressources on the platform ! We just need to create a Recipe on IFTTT now ! :)

Now, you are able to share links via the ⊕ button on top right, next to your profile picture -- without using extension.
