Scheduled Downtime: springpad will be unavailable on Sunday morning 7am-9am (EST) for feature upgrades. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Our upcoming release of springpad includes a handful of features that our users have been asking for:

1. Mobile web access:  View your springpad data on your iPhone or other browser-enabled phone. This is just the first step in our mobile initiative…  Stay tuned for more fun ways to access springpad on the go in the coming months!   We’ll be looking for users to test it out & give us feedback (feedback@springpartners.com).

2. Improved sharing features:  Post items to Facebook easier, showing more details to your friends.

3. Performance improvements:  We are continuing to do work to make springpad more responsive.

Be sure to check out feedback from springpad users on Get Satisfaction!

We are introducing a whole slew of new springpad features tomorrow morning, with a focus on improving sharing.  Read more about the features below…

Sharing made easier

1. Social sharing: Share your great ideas & favorite things via facebook, twitter, or good old fashioned email.  Your friends don’t even need to be springpad users to see that new recipe that you’re recommending.
2. Share privately or publicly: You control whether you’d like your data to be viewable by all springpad user or just your closest friends.

Collect ideas from other springpad users

1. Follow people you trust: If someone sends you a recipe that you just love, you can follow them.  You’ll see anything new that they add to their springpad so you can make a copy of it for yourself.
2. Create your own profile: Begin curating your own collection of springpad items to recommend to other users.
3. Community Discussion: Invite your friends or other springpad users to tell you what they think of that restaurant that you are considering.

Navigation improvements

1. Organize your collections in My Stuff: As you begin to find ideas from the people you follow & add them to your collection, springpad will help you stay organized.
2. New sections in top navigation: Home lets you see what you’ve done in springpad lately, and Discover helps you to find new ideas to add to your springpad.

3. More room to add details: Each item in springpad now has larger view that gives you the room you need to keep all of your notes.

Use the springpad clipper to save Recipes & Products

In addition to clipping notes, now use the clipper to add recipes & products to your springpad as you surf the web.  The clipper can also be used as a basic bookmarklet for saving websites if you don’t highlight anything before you “Spring It!” Read more about the springpad clipper...
