+## Note on the project status!
+This project is still here, and as far as I know the script still works. But as I don't use Kippt anymore at the very moment, I also don't use this script.
+
+**This Project is not actively maintained aynmore!** Feel free to submit bugfixes/changes and I'll try to apply them - but I won't fix bugs or add features for now.
+
+
+## What's this all about?
+
+I started playing around with [kippt.com](http://www.kippt.com) which looks promising as a successor for the beloved del.icio.us which (since acquired by that big company) lost a lot of the power that I liked. And since I already had a del.icio.us to MySQL-Backup script in place, I thought something like that needs to be possible with kippt.com, too.
+
+And here we go: A rough first draft of a kippt.com backup script - maybe a migration tool from del.icio.us to kippt.com will follow.
+
+
+## Backing up all your kippt.com bookmarks to MySQL:
+
+### How to do?
+
+1. Clone this repository
+
+2. Create a database with a table called "clips" (see database schema file in the cloned directory)
+
+3. Copy config.sample.php to config.php and enter your local database credentials together with your kippt.com username and API-Token
+   You can find your kippt.com API-Token by visiting the following "page" with your browser while being logged in: https://kippt.com/api/account
+
+4. Run the script : php -f kipptBackup.php
+
