Springpad is leaving us. Soon (June 25, 2014, to be exact). And I’m looking for a replacement.

I liked Springpad. It was nice. But I really miss Clipboard. Clipboard was perfect. It did everything I wanted it to.

I’m going to be trying out, and documenting, my notes on various suggested replacements for Springpad/Clipboard over the next few days.

My criteria are simple. I will test each service for:

Ease of use

Privacy/sharability and the granularity thereof

Comments

Content storage - NOT a bookmarking service

How does it handle text?

That last one is really important. I’m not looking for Pinterest, here. I want to be able to store content from the web, then comment on it. This means text - sometimes full articles, sometimes portions of an article, or even maybe just a genius clip of code.

I’m going to test a few types of content. A recipe, which fits on one screen. A menu, which does not fit on one screen. That’s it - I’m keeping it simple.
