del.icio.us going away!

[rmd]

waaaahhh!
I liked del.icio.us (even if they did start redirecting things to delicious.com). I'll need to snag all my bookmarks from there. But where's a good replacement site? Anyone have something they like?

Annoying... I was toying with an automatic homepage generator that would build the page form del.icio.us ... sad that Yahoo frittered away a nice little company... :(

Damn, I really liked that as a space to store good bookmarks!

Thanks for the heads up. I wasn't paying attention.

After I stopped swearing and sobbing, I exported my bookmarks. (http://lifehacker.com/5714313/how-to-export-your-delicious-bookmarks-and-import-them-into-your-favorite-browser) It's not the same, but at least I have all 700+ recipe links.

Crap. I want ubiquitous bookmarks, not notations in each browser.

It looks like pinboard.us is popular among a bunch of folks. It's not free, and evidently the price rises with time. It's gone up a bunch today, I guess, for obvious reasons, but is still well under $10 for a membership.

I saw a pointer to Scuttle, an open-source version of Delicous. I may put it up on my server. http://sourceforge.net/projects/scuttle/ I don't use any of the 'social' parts of Delicious, so being the sole user is no big deal.

cool.

i like occasionally seeing what other people I know are doing, or what random things are popular, so I like some of the social aspects.

mozilla is launching "sync" in ff4 - a bookmark synchronizer that would prolly do what you need.....once ff4 is, you know, solid and stable and all, but that won't be long. https://mozillalabs.com/sync/

cool. one thing i like about a separate site, though, is that it's usable regardless of what browser i'm on. like a random browser at someone else's machine or when i'm suddenly doing something unexpected like firing up safari on my work machine to do something with a different proxy than the firefox instance.

Gah. not pinboard.us. pinboard.in.
