Does anybody know of any good bookmark management tools?
There are a couple of social bookmarking sites. I use http://del.icio.us
(all about it here: http://del.icio.us/help/) The advantages are several:
- your bookmarks are stored online so it doesn't matter what computer
you are using, you will always have access to them
- the tags (keywords) you use to describe your bookmarks get compiled
into the entire system so you and people who use the same tags as you
can find things you have bookmarked--spreading the work and the wealth,
as it were (i's called building "folksonomies", i.e taxonomies or naming
conventions determined by the people who use them instead of by an
authority)
- if you use the Firefox web browser (http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/)
there is an add-on that works with del.icio.us that let's you add a
button to your toolbar so you can add bookmarks with the click of a mouse
- you can build a network of people with whom you want to share
bookmarks, and they can share their bookmarks with you
- and then there are the cool things related to RSS that let you pour
your bookmarks into your blog and such--but let's not get carried away...
We now return you to your regularly scheduled sewing...
- Hope
