Around the same time, I saw another collection of bookmarks for developers (don't remember what it was exactly but it was just like Evernote Design). At the time I thought it was really cool but it irked me a bit that all these bookmark collections used their own UI or were just thrown up on Github in the form of an awesome list.

I thought to myself, wouldn't it be great if there was a tool that could be used for these bookmarks, rather than having to build a UI to display them. I looked around and while I found several online solutions all had 2 major issues:

1. They were mostly aimed at scrapbooking, emphasizing visual over just displaying the data.

2. All required an account with the app and the app-controlled your data. If the app goes away in the future, so do your bookmarks.

So in response, I created fav.sh. Fav.sh lets you create bookmarks and keep them in your browsers local storage and then lets you either backup/restore your data via JSON upload/download or backing up to Github Gist. I tried to make it as agnostic as possible, opting for bookmarklets to achieve things like adding a bookmark or popping open a mini-window rather than a browser-extension approach. In addition, you can quickly share any created bookmarks.

I'd love to hear from you guys in ways I can improve
