Thanks for the great comments, everyone. There are a LOT of social bookmarking services out there. Fortunately it’s not difficult to move your bookmarks from service to service in a batch. That way you can experiment to see what works best for you without losing your links.

I have been using Delicious but I had not imported all my bookmarks from my favorites to it. Thanks for making it easy to do that. Now everything is in one place! Kathy

“Access saved copies of pages that are no longer online.” That’s a good thing to have pointed out–I had not thought of that. And all of the comments on this post are very useful ones.

I might also recommend checking out hordit.com. Has all the usual social bookmarking features plus you can store other types of information. Files, photos, notes, etc.

I switched from Delicious to Diigo this year — there are a lot of nice highlighting and annotation features that make it more useful to me. It’s worth checking out.

I started using Delicious after the MLS Web 2.0 class earlier this year. I find myself putting more and more into it and less and less into my computer favorites list. It is a lot easier to locate a web site and I can follow other people who have added the same links to see what else there might be out there.
