Ask HN: How do you book-mark web pages

7 pointsby sun123about 13 years ago
I use different browsers in different places(Mozilla in office , Chrome in home, Dolphin in Android , safari in ipod touch). Is there any way we can sync all these book marks ? Perhaps there should be an android/iPhone app, and UI through the web.

Personally I use Firefox Sync. It's encrypted end-to-end and if you don't even trust Mozilla with your encrypted data, you can set up your own sync server. Chrome has something similar too however I'm unsure how open it is.<p>You can sync your bookmarks using Firefox Sync to your Android, if you were to use Firefox for Android (it's pretty good and there are big improvements on the way - I went to a talk about it at FOSDEM).<p>For your iPod touch, I have no idea, though it raises the question why you need one when you have an Android phone but anyway.<p>For your home computer, you could switch to Firefox however I imagine there'll be an addon that syncs bookmarks from Firefox Sync. I'd always recommend using the more open service as it's far more likely to be supported.

I use diigo.com; it was recommended by another HN user (j45) some months ago. Prior to that I was using Google Bookmarks, but I've moved all the bookmarks from there into Diigo.<p>I love Diigo's ability to highlight a snippet of text on a page.

I use Instapaper. I know it's not for bookmarking but I already use it for saving articles and can't be bothered to use something else for other types of links.

Used Delicious in the past, now i just use Safari and only bookmark really really important stuff.
