Ask HN: What simple tool do you use to manage your bookmarks?

22 pointsby thojestalmost 6 years ago
I am looking for an easy and highly accessible tool to manage my bookmarks. It would be very nice if it is browser and platform independent.

I maintain a static HTML file with all my bookmarks, which also includes embedded search boxes for Google, Wikipedia, etc. It forms a much better home page + new tab page than anything else. File is automatically sync'd between various devices using variois tools.

I posted about an extension I built to help me manage my bookmarks yesterday. It sends you an email of all the bookmarks you make for that day at the end of a day (similar to a news letter). You can find it at linkdrop.co<p>It sounds like you are more concerned with management than rediscovery, though, so it might not solve your usecase. In that case, I would definitely recommend getpocket.com for saving bookmarks across browsers&#x2F;machines.

I recently spring clean my bookmark to bare essentials, because I found that I rarely use them anymore. If I want to read something, I save it to Pocket. RSS+Feedly for sites that I want to follow. For site that I want to keep for historical purpose, I save the url and screenshot in Google Keep, label it, archive and forget, without cluttering the bookmark.<p>Actually, I also use this method (keep-archive) in Google Keep for keeping other site too (the &#x27;archive&#x27; button is so satisfying to use. It lifts the burden to manage bookmark out of your head, and I know the information is there, in my Google Keep, if I want to see it again (Note: I don&#x27;t)<p>For sites I use frequently, I put it in new tab screen using chrome extension called Toby. If it start to accumulate, then I review it, discard it, or save it in specific label in Google keep.

I recently found out about Larder.io[1]. It nicely integrates with github stars, web clipper and has an API. I like it for it&#x27;s simplicity as most of these tools are way too much for simple bookmarking.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;larder.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;larder.io</a>

WordPress. Not simple to setup or free but once it is setup, it is pretty simple to use.<p>I use bookmarklet on desktop and WordPress app on phone to post anything interesting to my bookmarks blog. It is pretty easy to search. Sometimes I use tags but usually not. It appears to be a messy collection of links, videos, quotes. But it works great for my purposes.<p>Blog: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.chaosplay.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.chaosplay.com</a>

I wanted the simplest way to save bookmarks, with a single click like i do in the browser, so i made this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pinplz.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pinplz.com</a><p>You can browse chronologically (blog-like), by tag, by domain, leave notes. It also saves the referrer of the bookmark, which is handy when i can&#x27;t remember where i found the link.

I&#x27;ve been using pinboard.com since the open beta, almost ten years ago. One of the hidden (?) gems of the internet.

www.pinboard.in is great. Could use some improvements, but it just works and is reliable. Highly recommended.

I&#x27;m using Static Marks [1], my own tool to manage bookmarks. It&#x27;s open source ans browser&#x2F;OS independent.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;darekkay.com&#x2F;static-marks&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;darekkay.com&#x2F;static-marks&#x2F;</a>

Related question - how many bookmarks do you have and how do you use them? Because for my use I don&#x27;t see a point of doing anything fancier that Ctrl-D to bookmark and keeping them in &lt;5 folders in my browser.
