I don't know what you mean by "the links don't work". They work fine. But 
that particular page isn't well maintained. It's true that most developers 
don't like to document, especially if they don't think anyone is paying 
attention.

A better place to go is the github 
repository: https://github.com/buggyj/tiddlyclip

The developer continues to maintain the project and is very helpful  -- 
I've been corresponding with him most of the last week! It works with 
Chrome and is highly configurable. It's pretty hard to keep up with 
Evernote that has had millions of dollars at its disposal, but 
tiddlyclipper does a pretty good job. 

The surprising thing is how few people seem to reference tiddlyclip. You 
would indeed expect it to get more notice.

There's been some light discussion regarding bookmarks. My feeling is that 
it's very hard to compete with the bookmarking system that's already built 
into your browser.

What I do for my bookmarks in TW is to set a title, tags (including 
'Bookmark'), some descriptive text and a  url field. Then have a bookmark 
viewer template that displays the link. I have this as part of a tag-tree 
structure of which Bookmarks are just one part. But I use a variety of 
technologies (esp xBrowserSync) to manage bookmarks, so I don't have 
everything in one basket.
