[IxDA Discuss] Bookmarks Managment Brainstorming

[David Malouf]

HI Esteban,

I use Del.icio.us + Firefox + the Del.icio.us Add-on from Yahoo!.
It takes over the entire bookmark management service of Firefox and does a
few things that I have grown to like:

1. Searchable bookmarks by either tag or title of Bookmark (you don't have
to choose, it just shows you.

2. Tag navigation. It lists all my tags (or those filtered by the search
query) and then you can expand a tag and then see those bookmarks limited to
that tag.

3. Of course there is an easy dialog for adding bookmarks to del.icio.us.

4. Whatever machine I'm on, has all my bookmarks (Home, office, laptop,
etc.) Because the add-on logs in.

5. For each individual machine the bookmark toolbar is taken over by
del.icio.us with the following view options: "Most Viewed", "Recently
Added", or you can create your own tag(s) to be viewed on the toolbar.

To me this has made del.icio.us finally useful to me, as the hosted model
for bookmark management seems to be ideal for me as someone who uses a lot
of machines.

Anyway, I'm sure there is some fodder in here to help with your
brainstorming for bookmark management. I'm sure there are many other
features that would help.

I do have to say that I thought I loved my bookmark system with heirarchical
folders previously, but really don't miss them now that I have this
del.icio.us sidebar and bookmark system.
