Ask HN: How do you organize your Bookmarks?
9 comments
I used to use del.icio.us too, but after their first (?) shutdown I created a few open source projects for my bookmarking needs.
Please, take a look:
https://github.com/usametov/gitmarks -- github-search-friendly format you can export your bookmarks to.
https://github.com/usametov/Bookmarks-ETL -- import/export bookmarks from variety of social bookmarking web sites like del.icio.us, bibsonomy, pinterest. You can export bookmarks to gitmarks as well merge them. I want to add elastic search support in the near future.
https://github.com/usametov/TagSortService -- this is actually bookmark organizer. You can group tags in tag bundles, I personally see a lot reasons for doing that.
All these projects are very young. I am planning to document them properly, dockerize some of them. Please, bear with me.
There is also machine-learning/text-mining work in the pipeline.
Thank you for sharing, the gitmarks looks very interesting.
I have a Pinboard account that I keep adding things to and NEVER go back to see 1) what's there or 2) search for anything. I always end up googling whatever I need.
I keep adding things there "for the day that I will sit down, organize everything and read what's pending", but for some reason this day never comes and nowadays I believe it will never will.
Not managing my bookmarks correctly and leaving stuff unread use to bother me a lot. It stopped the moment I realized it was okay and that I wouldn't miss anything important.

Honestly, it is just an awful mess. I use Google Chrome to add to my bookmarks. I have folders clearly named. Things like "Useful Tools", "My Company", "My Web Host", "Random", "Funny", "Relationships", "Philosophy", "Internet", etc. But I really hardly ever return back to it. The only folder that seems truly worthy is "Useful Tools". Definitely wish there was a better way... and I'm usually good at coming up with ideas to make life easier, but bookmarks remain as organized as my house. Lets not even go there.
I keep most of my bookmarks as a mind map.

I use Bookmark OS and really enjoy it. It's super clean and intuitive. https://bookmarkos.com
I also used del.icio.us and after doing a couple of custom solutions I ended with simple browser's folders... you might want to look into pinboard though
i use opera's system to sync as it lets me browse all of my machine's individual bookmark folders. Keeps things clean at work, but everything quick to access.
if i had to switch (and could install the plugin on the work pc) i'd use xmarks

I am curious what other free solutions are out there to organize bookmarks in the cloud.
What are you using?
