How do you save your bookmarks?


What bookmarks manager do you use to save your bookmarks and supports fulltext search

I pay $3/month for Raindrop.io [0]. The paid version has full text search.

I don't usually pay for utilities, but this has been nice since I bought it a month ago.

Mainly for the function to send to my kindle for less eye strain.

(Shameless Plug): I am developing a sharable bookmarking app that allows sharing of bookmarks:

I have written my own tool, StaticMarks[0]. I maintain my bookmarks in plain YAML files and generate a static web app on every change.

Assuming by your non-specific 'bookmarks', you mean Browser Bookmarks:

Periodically, (meaning 'when I remember') I save my current browser bookmarks as a .html file in a specific 'bookmarks' folder in my 'Documents' directory. These files get named 'bookmarks_YYMMDD', thus they are automatically sorted by date.

Being .html files, they are automatically also plain text files, and can be searched easily using standard tools like 'grep'.

I save them in my browser, I really don't get the need for 3rd party apps, text search, paid services or huge systems that contain 1000s of bookmarks.

What are you guys saving that's so important to you?

xbrowsersync is my best find in the past year. Opensource, decentralized public syncing servers or you can build your own. It does not save passwords (that's good or bad depending on your perspective :). It is not available in IOS due to developer fees.

WordPress and PressIt plug-in.

Searchable, accessible from anywhere, and I own it, no worries about service shutting down.
