he-yo. I'm one of the earliest users of del.icio.us and also pinboard, made similar tools to buku for my Linux desktop, and added a custom tabless web browser on top of it to make bookmarking as convenient as possible. it was a very productive setup, but I don't use it anymore; https://github.com/azer/delicious-surf https://github.com/azer/delicious-surf
Storing bookmarks locally is definitely cool but it's still not convenient enough for us to bookmark any page that we found value. If I'm browsing 30 pages about my upcoming trip to Patagonia, I won't bookmark most of it just because it's not convenient enough. If I google a solution for a problem for hours and go through tens of pages to find information, it's likely that I won't bookmark most of the pages.
You can keep bookmarks in Chrome, Safari, Pinboard, Firefox, whatever. But they are all not innovating bookmarking and likely won't.
And this is exactly why I'm building Kozmos currently. It has a desktop and mobile client, and will bring completely new perspective on bookmarking. You won't need to organize anything, it'll all be done automatically and you'll easily find your stuff thanks to advanced search engine. My goal is to bring good design and good tech together, and provide everyone the most convenient way to bookmark.
