      As someone who’s never used Pocket but recently got a Kobo and saw there’s an integration, I was a little annoyed they were shutting it down. I wonder if Kobo will create their own service to fill the gap? Given how hackable the device is, I’m sure the community will if they don’t.

        I hope that we can just transition form Mozilla Pocket to Digg Pocket without much hassle, but that probably won’t happen. I understand all the hate for Pocket I’ve seen over the last two days because it’s useless to most people, but man, there’s a really good use case for Kobo owners.
