Ask HN: How do you manage your bookmarks?

If you're willing to tag things so you can find them later, then https://pinboard.in

If you're not then don't store them, just google them when you need them. That will either help you find the link you wanted, or it will find you something better, because the world has moved on since then.

I second the Pinboard suggestion. By paying the relatively inexpensive yearly fee, you get full text archives too which is great in the fight against link rot.

I second this seconding and comment about the archive.

the whole point of bookmarks is to be able to retrieve the info later. that archive has helped me SO many times.

Wholeheartedly agree with this. I've been very happy with pinboard, the one area that could use improvement is on the mobile side: it's a bit annoying to set a new bookmark in a mobile browser.

You don't necessarily have to tag them, if you pay a bit extra for full-text archive, then import your browser's bookmarks.

Are there any services where you can submit a URL and get a list of tags back curated by humans?

EDIT: Looks like Pinboard does this already! Mea culpa.

When you try to bookmark a page, it shows recommended tags based on the other users' tags. So I can safely answer yes.

Pinboard.in + Shiori on mac for easy access and saving bookmarks in an Alfred-like way.

Shiori regularly is broken for me these days. Not filling any fields. I’ve almost given up on it. I thought it was because it wasn’t updated. Not that it might just be me.

How does Pinboard compare with Pocket? Pocket appears to be integrated into Firefox.

you use a boomarklet (or plugin) to bookmark things. you use a link / bookmark to retrieve them. That link to your bookmarks can be on your home screen like pocket things. It's not radically different in terms of function. It is a bookmark manager after all.

it doesn't suggest links to you and the visual style is very different.

It's run by a single developer who responds quickly to feedback.

IMNSHO it's worth every penny.
