New feature: submit bookmarks via email

Jan 9, 2026 · Peter Sanchez · Bookmarks Email Feature Pinboard

We’ve pushed out a new feature allowing you to submit your bookmarks via email. It’s something that originally we hadn’t really planned on adding because we didn’t think people would care to use it. However we’ve seen it mentioned more than once in the past and recently a reddit comment brought it up again. So we decided wth, as many integrations as possible is pretty useful and this isn’t something terrible difficult to do.

So we are officially announcing the ability to post your links via email.

It’s quite simple actually. You enable the feature in your account and you’ll be given a special email address. It would look like something like post+<random>@linktaco.com. This is a unique account identifier and should be kept private. Anyone with this email address can post to your account so do not share it!

Then just send a specially crafted email to this address. Here’s an example taken from the documentation:

Subject: Hacktivist deletes white supremacist websites live onstage during hacker conference

https://techcrunch.com/2026/01/05/hacktivist-deletes-white-supremacist-websites-live-on-stage-during-hacker-conference/

So cool! Hackers deleted a white supremacist website during a live demo at a
hacker conference.

tags: hacker, conference, live on stage, cool
starred: true

You can see the actual result of this email on this bookmark’s detail page.

For more information on all that can be done with this new integration please head over to the documentation page.

Happy bookmarking!

tar: a slop-free alternative to rsync

So apparently rsync is slop now. When I heard, I wanted to drop a quick note on my blog to give an alternative: tar. It doesn’t do everything that rsync does, in particular identifying and skipping up-to-date files, but tar + ssh can definitely accomodate th…
