Browser bookmarks

Afraid you'll lose your bookmarks if your disk crashes, or when you jump to another computer? Some solutions I have found:

  • http://www.quickbookmarks.com This is basically an online repository for your bookmarks. Wherever you are in the world, you can log in and find that obscure bookmark you saved. The only downside I seen is you have to explicitly define each bookmark with no bulk import feature.
  • http://www.mybookmarks.com This page DOES allow importing of bookmarks but I'm not a big fan of the clunky interface. You just need to export you bookmarks to html (see below) and then import.
  • Firefox has a neat bookmark export feature that exports your bookmarks to an html page! Just go to Bookmarks/Organize and then File/Export and save to an HTML file for backup or stick it on your web page.
