It always starts the same way. A friend sends you a link. You open it, read two lines, think "this is good, I'll finish it tonight," and file it somewhere. A tab. A chat message. A note to yourself. Tonight comes, and the link is gone.
I lost years of good reading that way. Articles I genuinely wanted to read, videos I meant to watch, products I wanted to look at again, all scattered across tabs, inboxes and half-remembered conversations. Every app I tried wanted me to organize my life around it. I just wanted one place to put the link.
So I built one. interQ is a queue for the web: one place where every "read it later" goes, and where the things other people find are worth your time too.
Chapter one: the link
The first thing interQ does is the simplest: it catches the link. Found a great article, video or product? Add it to your queue the moment you find it, with the browser extension or straight from the web app. No ceremony. The link lands in your queue and waits for you, instead of the other way around.
That sounds small. It is small. But a queue you actually trust changes what you do when something interesting shows up mid-meeting, mid-scroll, mid-anything. You stop keeping seventeen tabs open as a memory system. You save the link and move on, because you know exactly where it will be when you want it.
Chapter two: the queue follows you
A reading list that lives on one device is just another tab problem. Your interQ queue is always at your fingertips, three ways:
- The web app. Open it anywhere, pick the next thing, read.
- RSS feeds. Your queue shows up in your favorite reader, next to everything else you follow.
- The browser extension. Save and check your queue without leaving the page you're on.
And here is the part I care about most: interQ is completely open. Your web app and your RSS feed are yours to share. Hand the feed to a friend, a colleague, your whole team, and they're reading your queue in whatever reader they already use. No accounts to create, no invites to manage.
Chapter three: tags become channels
Once the links start piling up, a flat list stops being enough. So every link you add gets tags. "AI." "Recipes." "That bike I'll buy someday." Tags let you categorize everything and actually find it again later.
Then tags do something nicer: they turn into channels. Follow a tag and you get a personalized feed of everything under it, your own stream on that topic. Your queue stops being a pile and becomes a small library that organizes itself around what you care about.
Chapter four: other people's finds
The last piece is my favorite. Everyone on interQ is building their own queue, and you can look around. Explore what other users are sharing, follow the queues you like, and your own reading gets better by osmosis: interesting, relevant content, handpicked by people, not ranked by an engagement machine.
That's the whole idea, really. Save and organize the content you care about. Discover new things from people, not algorithms. Build feeds that match your interests, and share yours the same way.
The next time someone sends you a link, you'll know what to do with it. Start your interQ and give that tab a proper home.
