| I used to use Del.icio.us and _loved_ they version 2.0 look. It was beautiful service I would happily pay for using if I had to. I was so dissapointed at the time they were killing it, I never switched to pinboard or anything like this. Now I defaulted to bookmarks in Chrome, synced and encrypted + Session Buddy extension [0]. I sort heavily using folders: 'by Topic'(abbr. to 'bT') with subfolders for current research projects (eg. Juicer,...); 'People' with subfolders 'Friend A's name',... where I put links received from / sent to folks; 'Track' with 'Year.Month' subfolders; I rearrange folders so placement of a folder is also a queue - both left-right on the toolbar and up/down in a dropdown (Chrome does not force 'byTime' or 'A-Z' sorting and allows dragging).
I also keep folder names as short as possible: S would stand for 'Services' - web apps I use on daily basis, 'R' would be 'Research'. Most frequently used services get bookmark without text - just an icon on the bar. 'I defaulted to bookmarks in Chrome' means its the simplest thing, bare minimum, but it kind of works. Saving pages on mobile? - I get lost here (Opera Mobile on the phone has 40+ open tabs - 'bookmarked', so to speak). Session Buddy is a beast of its own. You can name sessions there, merge them, edit them, search them and so on. Tools we use shape us in more subtle ways than we usually realise. I certainly miss 'social' part of using Del.icio.us and I would definitely reach out more if using social bookmarking service instead of bookmarks in a browser. Maybe I should come back.

Edit: For me 'How do you manage your bookmarks?' is a sub-problem of a topic of 'How you take/manage notes' (including lists, todos and all that stuff). I don't even wanna start it. |
