I'm working on a bookmarking service right now (literally, open in the other window). Instant search, highlighting, a UI that encourages 'rediscovery' of articles that are saved but not read ("hey you, here's what you bookmarked 7 days ago") and a reading feature similar to readability. There's space here to build a product that people love and that sticks around. Parsing web pages is proving tricky in some cases, if anybody has any library suggestions, shout.

will it be self hostable?

  Launching as a service to begin with, however considering people's justified concerns with bookmark services folding I'll look at that. Key feature will be easy import from every other popular bookmark service. Pull in your data in seconds, see if you like how we treat it, and make a call on switching.

Tweet me (@pinboard) when it's ready and I'll be happy to tell people there's a new bookmarking game in town. I like to advertise new arrivals because it makes me look confident.
