Blasta - The agreeable and cordial civic bookmarking system.

Blasta is a collaborative bookmarks manager for organizing online content. It allows you to add links to your personal collection of links, to categorize them with keywords, and to share your collection not only among your own software, devices and machines, but also with others.

What makes Blasta a collaborative system is its ability to display to you the links that other people have collected, as well as showing you who else has bookmarked a specific link. You can also view the links collected by others, and subscribe to the links of people whose lists you deem to be interesting.

Blasta does not limit you to save links of certain types; you can save links of types adc, dweb, ed2k, feed, ftp, gemini, geo, gopher, http, ipfs, irc, magnet, mailto, monero, mms, news, sip, udp, xmpp and any scheme and type that you desire.
