What do you mean by pinboard model?

That's exactly what I see ifttt becoming.

It's your lucky day! Make a detailed list of what you would want from such a service, divided into levels, and indicate how much you would pay for each level. Place the list here, or email it to me, and I'll try to build your ultimate ifttt clone. I like pinboard and ifttt, but I see ifttt as struggling to transition to a paying model because they are spending way too much time, money and energy supporting a large user base for free.
