Good, honest perspective about the fate of social bookmarking. - Hutch Carpenter

I find that I now just open many more tabs in my browser that I know I will get to in a day or so. I hardly ever go back through my Delicious bookmarks to find something from months ago. - Caleb Elston

Caleb: what do you do if your computer crashes with all of those open tabs? :) - Mark Dykeman

It is for a few reasons. 1) They end up on FriendFeed. 2) I use it to track "coverage" of my blog and this is a very easy way. 3) Because I can track topics of bookmarks. That's about it. - Louis Gray

Louis: seeing your Del.icio.us bookmarks in FriendFeed stimulated the line of thinking that led to this post. It occured to me that I hadn't really had visibilty into bookmarking activity like that before and from there I got to thinking about bookmarking in general. - Mark Dykeman

Mark, Impossible- I run a Mac ;) - Caleb Elston

Has anyone tried ZigTag? - Shey

Caleb - bah. - Mark Dykeman

Seriously though, Safari has a new 'Recover tabs from last session' that works really well. - Caleb Elston

I use Diigo and Del.icio.us and I do refer back to my bookmarks frequently. . I've got more than 2K bookmarks now. I always add a description and tags so retrieval will be quick and easy. I also use the services for sharing resources with my co-workers a lot (I'm a developer and always looking for code libraries, snippets and patterns to make my job easier). Bookmarking services are incredibly useful to me. I won't quit using them any time soon. - Lindsay is :)

I keep tons of tabs open and also use Instapaper and Delicious for stuff I need to get back to. Even with Google making everything available, it's still easier to save stuff on my terms. - Carlos Granier-Phelps from twhirl

Lindsay - that's great! A good example of how they can be used, plus the two services that you describe would provide you access to that info from any PC. - Mark Dykeman

I use del.icio.us for cross machine access, sending links to others, seeing who got there first and wondering at the tagging suggestions. Having rss feeds is a bonus. - Ashton

I use del.icio.us, and I regularly go looking for things I have saved. I use it primarily for myself, though I do use the "for:" tag quite a bit too. - Mack D. Male

I split my bookmarks into two - the ones I use regularly and the onese I want to keep for future reference. The one's I use regularly live in Google Bookmarks and the future reference ones go into del.icio.us - Andy Davies
