Product preview
Overview
Raindrop is Instapaper if the save is a library: collections, covers, search. Pocket died; this is the shelf that stayed.
It will not be a reading queue first. It will make saves look kept. If later should be a library, this is bookmarks. If it should be a queue, Instapaper.
