I will probably get back to some in my next post. @kindja. Yeah I know this solution ;) At least you have a more advanced "sort by" feature. But anyway, my concern about bookmarks is more on this paradigm of saving information being equal to knowledge. I will digg this subject in my next post. So keep reading me ;) Eric @Totophe, thanks for your remarks. I will probably get back to some in my next post.

There are so many issues: - How do I categorize them - Do I mix professionnal and personnal links ? In this case, how do I categorize them - Which keywords are the best ones ? - On which folder should I put them - Some links are "sharable", some other not. - Sometimes, you want to spread the world, sometimes you just want to informe some bunch of collegues/friends, sometimes you want to get back on stuff when you have time. - Offline storing / loosing them ? (Ok, for this one, it should exist some interesting tools) So, as I said, there is no perfect way to achieve that. My current unsatisfacting technique consist of using several ways: - Browser bar: Personnal stuff to read once, professionnal "private links", links needed for a specific project - Del.icio.us: Stuff that matter, that should be known by everybody, that need to be shared, spread around the world. - Twitter/Chat/Mail: Links to some ephemere, funny, short life links sent to communities. But, theses are not yet the perfect art of state to bookmark knowledge.... From my point of view, there is no perfect tool for bookmarking things.
