Meet your latest weapon in the Clipix Arsenal: The Clipix QR Code Generator

August 21, 2012

While continuing to stay true to our core value of improving upon our user experience, we also have been working hard on one of our most recent features which screams innovation , our Clipix QR Code Generator.  

QR Codes have been in the market for awhile, and we feel that the use of them was not very popular by the consumer, because there was never a good and efficient way to organize them for later use. The Clipix QR Code Generator enables anyone and everyone to generate their own custom QR Code whether it be a link to a business’s website, video, even PDF files. Professionals ranging from individual bloggers to large corporations can easily use the Clipix QR Code Generator to present their promotional material.  Instead of scanning a useless QR Code with no destination, Clipix provides a platform to save everything you see and easily get back to in an organized fashion.

Currently QR Codes will re-direct consumers to a desired link without a convenient way to save or reference the content later. If you’re an organizational maven like we are, then you know that we had to put a stop to this. With the Clipix QR Code Generator, consumers will not only scan your materials but they will have an organized platform to reference your business or anything you are trying to promote, at any time. Consumers are more likely to return to promotional material if there is a convenient and organized way to find it, in order to come back to it.

Where you place the custom QR Code when promoting your material, is up to you. Whether it is on an advertising poster, real-estate “for sale” sign or on a plaque at your booth during a convention - we’ll handle the rest.

Introducing Price Drop Alerts, Bigger Images and Easy Reading

July 12, 2012

We’re constantly thinking about how we can improve Clipix and make it the absolute best it can be. Who better to learn from than our users?! We’ve taken a deep dive and analyzed some of the most common ways in which people are using Clipix and optimized for those uses. One of our most exciting discoveries was just how many users are clipping products from e-Commerce sites. Among all the clipped apartment listings and clipboards full of shoes, we knew there was something everyone would agree on; saving money rules.

So that got us thinking about how we could tailor the e-Commerce clipping experience to make it as phenomenal as possible. Then we had a crazy idea. One crazy enough it just might work. What if we could automatically let our users know when the price of the products they’ve clipped drops?! We got right to brainstorming and working through the technical feasibility and figured out that we could make it happen. It wasn’t long before we were supporting our patent pending “Price Drop Alerts” from hundreds and then thousands of e-Commerce sites, with the list of sites growing every day.

Clipix now automatically recognizes when you’re clipping a product and lets you set up an alert that’ll send you an email when the product hits your target price. When we first started getting Price Drop Alert emails we almost couldn’t believe it; it’s pretty much the best feeling ever. Now, whether you develop a shopping addiction is up to you, but we’re here to organize your life and help save you some time and money too. If you come across a store where you’d like to see Price Drop Alert, just let us know right here.

After Price Drop Alert we got to thinking about how we might improve Clipix to make people’s lives easier. Yes, it’s true; we rarely sleep! Some of the other most commonly clipped items are articles and blogs. We thought it would be pretty awesome if you could read an article without ever leaving Clipix. Now when you open a clip of an article, you’ll see the whole article right there. We’ve been getting some great feedback from voracious readers and students who do research. We’re in the midst of rolling this out and you’ll start seeing it on clips from all kinds of popular blogs and news outlets.

Right up there with products and articles are photos and gorgeous images. We wanted to let our users experience the full beauty of their clips and so we’ve started displaying much larger images on Clipix. They really are spectacular and we think it makes Clipix just that much better. We’re always thinking about what we can do next to take Clipix to the next level. Have an idea? Let us know! 

We’re faster, friendlier, and mobiler than ever!

March 12, 2012

Amidst all the excitement of having 1000’s of people joining the site we’ve been laser focused on improving the clipix experience in some really significant ways. We’ve focused on speed, mobile, finding friends, and improving navigation.

Speed
Speed is super important to us. We use clipix constantly to get things done. We’re designers, developers, marketers and just people with lots of ideas. We spend all day researching ways to improve clipix and save articles, files, forum posts etc. to our clipboards. We know as well as anyone that clipix is only as good as the speed with which you can get back to the things you clip. So we’ve put a lot into making clipboards load faster and pulling up clips more quickly. There’s certainly more work to be done but feedback on the performance enhancements from our early adopters has been phenomenal. More speed to come!

Mobile
Meanwhile, our mobile developers have been working miracles. They managed to bang out an incredibly full-featured Android app in just a few weeks. You can download it right now! It lets you take all your clips with you wherever you are, add clips by snapping photos with your phone and lots of other amazing things. Our iPhone app now supports adding clips by scanning product bar-codes, runs silky smooth, shows you your clipix friends, lets you add clipboards on the fly, among many other great improvements.

Friends
Back on the site we’ve added a great way to check out which of your friends are using clipix. Clipix isn’t and will never be anything like a social network, but it’s great to see your friends’ clipboards. People come up with the most interesting uses for clipix and every time we see our friends’ clipboards we come up with another brilliant use case. People are using clipix to find apartments, write research papers, plan vacations and anything else you can imagine.
At the same time, we improved our menu to make things more clear. You now have a count of your number of clipboard and number of clips with buttons for adding a new clipboard and adding more clips right above your clipboards. That means the main menu is stripped down to just your clipboards, our community section, and search. We think it makes a ton of sense.

PS
We thought you might like to know that we’re giving away some really great clipix T-Shirts. We wear them pretty much all the time and love them, so we thought it would be cool to give them away for free to anyone who wants one. Order yours here.
Like we said, the site’s been growing like crazy. That means we’re ready to expand the team that makes it happen. We’re looking for some great developers and people with solid marketing experience. Check out our careers page or let us know if you’re great at something not listed there.
