I've never found anything I'm completely comfortable with thought. Putting the links in a web page is a simple solution but populating it by cutting and pasting would be tedious (oh, want to book mark that, open another browser, deal with any security you might have cut the link, maybe fill in some additional info about the link, paste). I would think if you have a small enough set of places where you are commonly browsing from it might make more sense to have some batch processes that kick off periodically and send the current bookmark files to a central point, make it responsible for merging them all together and forming a web page of it. Hell, maybe just rebuild from scratch each time if you are using the url for the key. Get a file, add it to a db, replace any duplicates if they exist. If you don't want to use them via a web page then you could go the extra step of building a new bookmark file and sending it out, keep each browser in synch. > > Dag-Erling Smorgrav wrote: > > > > Eric Anderson writes: > > > So how does one add to the list easily?
