Poster Extension

Reddit without the website.
Browser-native Pinterest.
A completely different way to share the sites you love.

Poster is a social network that sits on top of the web as a browser extension, allowing you to share sites with your followers in a single click. Your home feed stays up-to-date with pages your friends and family are interested in, and when you stumble on a link that a followee has liked, we send you an unobtrusive notification letting you know. We never spam your email, blast you with ads or track your browsing activity. It’s completely free to use. The days of copying and pasting URLs into messaging applications are over. Poster is here.

Poster is a product of Loomis Technologies, Inc., a St. Louis, Missouri based development studio. If you have feature requests and/or bug alerts, send a note to [email protected]. We are actively working on Poster and would love to get your feedback.

Since it's passive communication, I share more articles than I would otherwise. I also get way more personalized suggestions by tapping into what people I know are reading and thinking about.
