I would recommend using `gist`[1] if you want to share snippets and if you just 
want to collect them for personal reference, use a local git/svn/whatever VCS 
you prefer. The advantage of putting them in gist or a local VCS is that you 
get 
all the native search/sort/manage/view tools 'for free'.

Besides snippets, I even put my vimrc and other assorted config files in git 
for 
this precise reason.
