New feature: Auto Clippings
Wanted to give everyone a heads up on a new feature that we'll be rolling out in the next couple of weeks. It is called Auto Clippings and it goes a little something like this...

If you are already using a bookmarking service like del.icio.us or blinklist to track items about you (which is what our Clippings feature lets you do), you can tell us which tag you use for those items (like "me" or "shawnmorton") and we'll start clipping those items automatically.

Here is what the page will look like:

Also, want to give a shout out to Jason Falls and Stef Lewandowski for both suggesting the Auto Clippings feature to me during our trip to SXSWi in March.

As always, let us know what you think of the idea by posting a comment or shooting us an e-mail at feedback at profilactic dot com.

[UPDATE:] Forgot to mention the services that we're launching with. We're going to support ClaimID, del.icio.us, Furl, ma.gnolia and blinklist at launch.
Comments:
Great idea. Could you also integrate ClaimID? That's what I use to collect my clippings.
