Well, I'm working on it. I have around 5000 bookmarks kindly donated by
other Web Consultants and I'm merging them, verifying the links, organizing
them and weeding out the garbage (yes, manually......load site, quick look,
save/trash). I've come across some very good links in the process and am
looking forward to sharing the result of the compilation.
I could still use bookmarks from other WC's, if anyone who hasn't sent
theirs to me would like to contribute, feel free (email me direct,
preferably in NS bookmark file format). There are a few categories that I
could use more links in. When I have a list of the categories that need some
beefing up I'll post it to the list.

Now that is most unfortunate.

Well, I'm still working on ideas for searching the bookmark list. Ideas
(beyond "categories, keywords, page titles, meta tags (maybe)") would be
appreciated. Would be nice to come up with some clever idea beyond the norm.

Well, let me dig into my bookmark file and see ;) The closest thing I've
seen is:

Good little resource when you're brainstorming on a new domain name, too.
I've used it a few times for that.
