Hey Everyone, Yuriy here from dewey. @alexprober, @tomharari and I built dewey., a bookmark manager for Twitter Bookmarks. Yes yes, but there are others, what's the difference? Well, every other manager doesn't actually manage your existing or new Twitter bookmarks, they just make you use likes or tweet at some bot—in other words use yet another third-party. dewey. actually grabs your Twitter bookmarks so you can continue using the native functionality Twitter gives you, and then layers search, sort, tags, collections, sharing, and even export (all things that Twitter should have made by default). In fact, dewey. is the only way to actually get use out of your Twitter bookmarks, and by the look of it, there are millions of Twitter users using them over third-party products. But what about all this hoopla with Twitter Blue? Well, Twitter decided that basic quality of life features like creating folders for Bookmarks needs to be something they charge $2.99/mo for. Guess what they didn't do, give you any way to organize your existing bookmarks. Yes, if you have ~300 bookmarks (dewey. user average) then you have to doomscroll and organize manually. They are charging for a neutered feature—something dewey. does for free on top of many others.

Congratulations! How can I use this with Roam or Obsidian?

@swastikagurung1 Hi Swastika, Currently we offer option to export your personal collections so you can import them into any 3rd party. In the future we will offer a more seamless integration. Thank you, Alex.
Ryan Hoover
@swastikagurung1 good idea. Perhaps a Zapier integration would be useful.

@rrhoover Already in the roadmap ;)
Swastika Gurung
@rrhoover Thanks. But Zapier is a bad idea :( Better, an Obsidian community plugin. I might use Zapier but never with Roam or Obsidian

Sounds great! All my bookmarks generally are a huge tangled mess... just like my brain. Hopefully this will help :)

@adamolac thanks Adam! I know how that is—1000+ bookmarks and no way to sort them at all. That’s what made me want to build dewey. in the first place.

@yuriyyarovoy @adamolac Thanks guys, yeah we very much started from a place of how do we scratch our own itch.

I have been using Dewey for a month or so now and it is hands down the best Twitter bookmarks curator out there. Unlike others, you don't have to comment on the tweet for it to get saved in your dashboard. It just grabs all your bookmarks instantly which you can their organize according to your preference. The experience is seamless and it is an absolute life saver! Kudos to the team!
Yuriy Yarovoy
Maker
@anupamgarg thank you! That was our biggest frustration with existing tools. Everything takes you off-Twitter and forces you to use a separate bookmarking system. We built dewey. as the only way to keep using Twitter’s native bookmarks and layer on organization and curation.
Tom Harari

@anupamgarg Thats very kind of you! Thank you for giving us a shot at such an early stage

@lastyprsfe Frankly we got tired of waiting for Twitter to build it so we did it ourselves. We have some awesome updates in the works to make it even better =)

Love the way this looks. The search/sorting function is 👌 Excited to try this out, maybe it'll get me to actively look through my bookmarks again.

@gabe__perez that’s our hope. So much gold in bookmarks that’s lost forever because there’s no way to dig down deep.

@gabe__perez Let us know what you think after you give it a spin!

You are probably going to save a lot of souls on Twitter coz everyone craves for better bookmark system 😅 Great idea guys!

Finally, someone tackling the Twitter Bookmarks! I am 100% keeping a close eye out for the Zapier integration on the your roadmap 🙂

@andrew_tsao Thanks Andrew! It's coming shortly!

This is great, any way to export to notion?
Yuriy Yarovoy
Maker
@cbsudu right now you can export a CSV of your bookmarks + the tags you added and import that into Notion as you would any other CSV. But now that the Notion API is live (finally amirite?) we’re going to work on deeper integrations among other note taking/knowledge management tools.
Tom Harari
Maker
@cbsudu @yuriyyarovoy The import of our csv into Notion looks really good btw. But yeah, def something we need to add
Devansh Jain
This is awesome, been trying to find ways to use bookmarks more effectively, there's so much good content on twitter!

@deejes thank you! Some of the best things I’ve learned and discovered are in my bookmarks. I reference them daily, looking for nuggets I’ve saved.
Tom Harari
Maker
@deejes Perhaps even too much to keep up with? That's why we built it. To help us make sense of it all and in turn, we realized that that curators are excellent at distilling all the great content that's out there... hence we made it easy to share your collections (private by default)
Suganthan Mohanadasan
I had the pleasure to use Dewey at the beta stage, and I can tell you, Yuri and his team fixed one of the most important yet badly implemented features on Twitter. Dewey is everything I'd expect from a bookmark manager. The ability to quickly find bookmarks, bulk tag and create collections is incredible. I can highly recommend this product. 10/10.
Yuriy Yarovoy

@suganthanmn Thanks Suganthan! Feedback from you and the community helped make this version of dewey. 10x better.

Here are some of the things we have coming up on our roadmap: - Public Collections Pages and URLs so you can share your curated bookmarks with the world if you want. - Build and publish meta threads directly from dewey. using your bookmarked tweets - Spaced Repetition via email and notifications (if you want it) - Integrations with note taking apps like Roam, Notion, Raindrop.io and more And these are just on our near-term roadmap. So much more dewey. goodness to come.

Just an awesome product. Can't believe it didn't exist before. Best part is it's brand new, so I imagine more features to come. Very cool tool!
Yuriy Yarovoy
Maker
@john_gargiulo Thanks John! We can't believe Twitter didn't build this by default either and then want to charge $2.99/mo for just a tiny piece of it.

@john_gargiulo @yuriyyarovoy Wayyy more features to come
Monica Odhiambo
This is a must have. Like there's no tool that grabs bookmarks and you get to categorise them according to your preference. You can't even begin to understand the amount of content that I save following amazing people online. I have been using it for a month and I am happy can bookmark stuff without having to worry about where they are. It's so worth it. Good jobs guys 😊

@monica_odhiambo Thank you Monica! Very much appreciate you being a part of the community from the start.
