If you're not then don't store them, just google them when you need them. That will either help you find the link you wanted, or it will find you something better, because the world has moved on since then.
- SAI_Peregrinus 7y agoWholeheartedly agree with this. I've been very happy with pinboard, the one area that could use improvement is on the mobile side: it's a bit annoying to set a new bookmark in a mobile browser.
- AndrewDucker 7y agoOn Android I use Pindroid.
- ghaff 7y agoSimplepin on iOS.
- chadk 7y agoPinner works fine on iOS.
- sp332 7y agoYou don't necessarily have to tag them, if you pay a bit extra for full-text archive, then import your browser's bookmarks.
- toomuchtodo 7y agoAre there any services where you can submit a URL and get a list of tags back curated by humans? EDIT: Looks like Pinboard does this already! Mea culpa.
- tgittos 7y agoI second the Pinboard suggestion. By paying the relatively inexpensive yearly fee, you get full text archives too which is great in the fight against link rot.
- masukomi 7y agoI second this seconding and comment about the archive. the whole point of bookmarks is to be able to retrieve the info later. that archive has helped me SO many times.
- UncleOxidant 7y agoHow does Pinboard compare with Pocket? Pocket appears to be integrated into Firefox.
- masukomi 7y agoyou use a boomarklet (or plugin) to bookmark things. you use a link / bookmark to retrieve them. That link to your bookmarks can be on your home screen like pocket things. It's not radically different in terms of function. It is a bookmark manager after all. it doesn't suggest links to you and the visual style is very different. It's run by a single developer who responds quickly to feedback. IMNSHO it's worth every penny.
- lardissone 7y agoPinboard.in + Shiori on mac for easy access and saving bookmarks in an Alfred-like way.
- skinnymuch 7y agoShiori regularly is broken for me these days. Not filling any fields. I’ve almost given up on it. I thought it was because it wasn’t updated. Not that it might just be me.
