Bookmarking Tools - Delicious, Diigo and Google Bookmarks

Online Social Bookmarking lets you easily store bookmarks in one place (backed up), search them and share them with others.

I have used all three of these to try and collect my bookmarks.



Diigo allows for excellent groups to share, easy to add links. A great tool to quickly flick through them. Excellent for a mathematics department to share all their links with each other.

 



A little while back we were unsure whether delicious would continue, but it is and there is now some innovation! It could be a good option now. It provides very good rss feeds.

I am a fan of Google products! I do like the fact that you can write additional comments with the bookmarks. Although they are not quite as nice to share with other people.

Application

Store your links, so that you can find them again. Share links with colleagues (get your whole department on a group). Get your class to share links with each other

  1. When Delicious when a bit wobbly, I moved to Pinboard. It does have a one-off sign-up fee, currently $9.50. As an option you can get an archival account for $25/year - an archival account stores a complete cached copy of every bookmark and makes full-text search of your bookmarks available - essentially your own Google.

    Like Delicious, many iPhone apps include Pinboard as an option for saving links.

  2. I? prefer to use Realer (http://www.therealer.com) to keep organized my bookmarks. You should review that too.

  3. Hi Joshua, thanks for your review. I have just launched a beta version of a simple bookmarking tool. I would be grateful if you could post any comments & suggestions. http://webupo.com
