Simpy
Simpy is a web-based personal and social bookmarking service. The service launched in May 2004 and is one of the oldest social bookmarking services that still operates independently (del.icio.us was acquired by Yahoo! and Furl was acquired by Looksmart).
Simpy uses tags and tag clouds to aid bookmark recall and allows bookmarks to be shared or kept private. It has a well-documented REST API suitable for mashups and integration with other applications and services. Simpy's founder is one of the developers of Lucene, a popular text search toolkit, so Simpy has powerful search capabilities. The service allows for cooperation, via groups with different levels of privacy, and for discovery of relevant and new links via its watchlists and watchlist filters. In addition to saving, tagging, and sharing links, users can also save, tag, and search free-text notes. Most data pages also have RSS feeds.
