I see you are convinced, but did want to add in my vote for Pinboard as
well. I, too, am a die-hard Evernote user, and I still find Pinboard very
useful. Pinboard is my read-it-later tool of choice, which works extremely
well for me -- if I decide to keep the article I've read, well, it's
already there in my account. :) I also like that if I have a problem, the
owner is very accessible via Twitter (and as others have said, his Twitter
feed in general is entertaining).
