Yeah, not sure yet if there’s anything there that really stands apart from the crowd, adds new features, or improves usability.
Web clips

I like the ability to browse all your cards (from all projects) together.

Update on this - I got my beta invite a month or so ago and have used it for a couple of writing projects. I like the concept:
- left pane toggles between outline and full text
- right pane holds snippets (cards) that can be dropped into the outline or the text
- cards store citation info
- web clipper captures text or images from web pages into a card ( in a specific project) with citation.
Working in it is fairly fast and fluid. I like it. I have been doing writing outlining in workflowy but will probably move more over to airstory. Wish they had an iOS version (they say it’s coming soon).
