Bookmark Holder

The Challenge

When trying to save a website cross-device, current methods are clunky.

The Goal

A site to store all your bookmarks on a single page that can be accessible anywhere. The high level goals were to: * Make it fast and easy to used * Create an organized view * Allow for personal storage of bookmarks per user

The User

The main user audience for this site was myself, which made insight gathering easy.
