Bookmark management=anathema
Managing
bookmarks is - for me by this point - at best a 'nice to have'. As a
case study, which I would guess is fairly typical for MOSX readers, I
now have:
I've
spent ages consolidating
home/work boomarks with (the classic OS) URL
Manager Pro in the distant
past, but that like many browsers requires a strict heirarchical
approach to
categorisation. This ends up in a deeply nested structure that is
ultimately unusable for me especially as the number of entries grows.
Unless of course you sacrifice the categorisation aspects in favour of
a flatter structure. Which misses the point of organising them in the
first place. So
I think del.icio.us does adopt
a much better way of going about categorizing boomarks, but.. it
obviously comes
at the price of having to tag each bookmark - and manually tagging
hundreds of
old bookmarks via a web form
is something I just would not have time or patience for. Life beyond
the screen and all that. I
agree with most of
bakalite's points above, google (while not
my 'closest' friend) combined
with a bit of dusted off wetware memory just about obviates
my need to carefully manage my hundreds of disparate bookmarks. Still, just maybe I will put some key new work boomarks in del.icio.us - especially if I can use them with the indomnitable QuickSilver at home, as a nice to have. Another database to manage..
Bookmark management=anathema
Anathema, I appreciate your thought on the matter of bookmark organizing. I too have to browse at work, home, and now del.icio.us adds a new complication for me. |
