Am I The Only Bookmark Freak Here?


I swear, I must have 2000 bookmarks saved.

What I do is, when the list gets long, I will make all of them into one html file which I save to my computer and keep it with everything else.

Am I alone?

I gave up on bookmarking everything. It's faster to google what I'm looking for than to dig through my bookmarks and most of the time the bookmarks are outdated/don't work.

Re: Am I The Only Bookmark Freak Here?


I probably have over a thousand saved.

What I do for something I need to share with a lot of links, such as the printing companies, is to make a Word Doc and copy/paste them into that and then I can share all of the sites at once with someone else if need be.

How is a bookmark different than saving something as a favorite?

Re: Am I The Only Bookmark Freak Here?


No idea that's why I'm asking. I save so many sites as favorites that I have a hard time managing them.

Don't forget Prodigy.

I have SBC DSL at my office and at my home.

On my homes computers, it is tabbed as Bookmarks and at the office I have the Favorites. Favorites seems to be easier to manipulate and organize.

You can save all your bookmarks online and then when you are out and about on other computers, log on and link away:

I think we should be posting in the "What are You Addicted To" thread.

Others can see you del.icio.us tags, don't save anything that you don't want to share.
