    1. mobile interface

      I'd like a more mobile (iPhone) friendly interface for accessing SB from the mobile.

      A dedicated iPhone app would also do... ;)

        We have been thinking about this. My front end guy has some ideas for making a mobile device friendly interface.

      • automatically import links I share from Google Reader into a designated category

        This way I can easily collect link I share in G Reader without going through to painful manual motions...

          This is something I would like as well. We used to do something like this before, but the model was too crude and not scalable, so we had to sacrifice it. We will think of a way of offering something similar in more sophisticated way than before. It would probably be something along the lines of importing directly to a GReader [account] collection in SB.

          • Make it possible to jump directly to pages when browsing a collection

            Currently, when browsing a collection, there are links to the previous and next page as well as a number showing which page you are on. Please make it possible to jump directly to any of, say, the 10 first pages and also show a total page count. Makes it much easier to find a bookmark you know is relatively old. I'm a huge fan of keeping it simple, but the current solution is taking it a bit too far :O)

            • focus more on tags in the visual user interface

              I would like to see tags more prominently located in the user interface. To be able to more easily search based on tags in all of secondbrain, within collections, a user.

                Tags are less prominent in the new version because we wanted to emphasize the simplicity of collections. We are still looking into options for how to use tags effectively in the new edition and may find more places for them over time.

                • show the suggested tags before I click 'Add more details'

                  It would make sense as adding the tags in such case does not require a lot of effort on my side but might add value to the bookmark for myself (when searching for it) and/or for SB (when looking up related bookmakrs, etc)

                    Makes sense. The challenge though is to balance simplicity and core features in the interface vs. advanced options like tags. I guess it depends on how we intend to take advantage of tags in the service. The use cases you mention are valid.

                  • Change username?

                    I've tried emailing you twice about this but didn't get a reply on either occasion... So is there anyway you could maybe implement this feature?

                        I'm not sure about anyone else, but I'd benefit from an image that I can wrap a link around to put in my signature on forums :)

                        • Favicon for the "Add This Page" link

                          I think that the "Add this Page" link that you save to your bookmark bar should have an icon. I know this may be a little tricky because it's not actually a link but I'm pretty sure that similar services such as Del.icio.us have this.
