Interesting site- if anything it's let me know how disorganized my bookmarks are. I can see how using this app would encourage one to categorize their daily inventory of interesting links to properly labeled folders.

Just a comment on the layout: it's certainly clean and straight-forward however on the feed page I would rather see the link title have more prominence over the user icon. Of course, this preference of mine comes from years of using HN and reddit.

Also, I would like to be able to see all the users that are on the site- is that possible?

Cheers! Hope this works out for you!

Thanks for the feedback! I have been considering removing the pictures next to the feed. You're probably right about it competing for you attention.

Cool idea. I think this is a great way to see what people actually read online and not just the random thing that catches their interest for a moment.

Great potential to find some high quality sites and information.

Thanks! We built it to combat the low-quality content problem. There is only one way to get content into briarpatch–through a bookmark. So it provides a new way to discover good sites.
