Pinboard is so great. I've bookmarked dozens and dozens of PDF crypto papers, and Pinboard does full-text search across them (and everything else I've bookmarked); I can type "pin subgroup" in my browser bar and poof! I have the paper I was trying to remember that breaks down the known attacks on GCM. To me, it's not "bookmarking" so much as "personal search".

Also, I would pay 2x if it generated more published back-and-forth with the current owners of Delicious.

Thomas is alluding to Maciej's frequent updates on Twitter, such as: Yesterday the new Delicious owner asked me about “helping guide the product and vision” for the site. My vision is this: I crush them

I actually got a Pinboard account because I love his tweets so damn much.

Is that ony a feature if you opt for the full archiving option or is that a basic part of pinboard? That sounds like a very compelling feature.

What do you use to get the 'pin' feature in your browser bar?

I'd guess a basic custom search defined to go to https://pinboard.in/search/u:[username]?query=%s

Ah yes, I'd forgotten such a thing even existed. Added, thanks!

Don't forget &fulltext=on if you want full text searching as tptacek described.

In duckduckgo you can just do:

    [query] !pb
