Spool team will join Facebook to close its services

Recently, according to relevant media reports, innovative Internet bookmarking service company Spool recently issued a statement said it will close its services, and its team will join the group to Facebook.

In the message to the user, spool expresses his thanks to the user, and is very considerate to attach all their bookmarks to each user, and a description link that explains how to import these bookmarks into a browser or other bookmark service.

Spool launched the test in 2011, not only to save articles and text content for users to "read later", but also to save video for users to view offline. In January of this year, spool financed 1 million of dollars from Svangel and Charles River Ventures and other VCs.

Spool's rivals pocket, Instapaper and readability have not yet provided video offline viewing services, but this service is currently violating the terms of the video site's YouTube service, which could be a major problem for spool.

Spool co-founder Avichalgarg (Avichal Garg) and Curtis Binser (Curtis Spencer) said they would announce their "post-spool plan" in the near future. The two founders have extensive work histories and have served in companies such as Google, Oracle, Amazon and Kosmix.

Facebook issued a statement welcoming the spool team's alliance. "The spool team is proficient in mobile software development and is passionate about simplifying content consumption," Facebook said in the statement. We are delighted to see this team join Facebook and welcome them to accelerate their ambitions here. "(Yau LA)
