I pay $3/month for Raindrop.io [0]. The paid version has full text search. I don't usually pay for utilities, but this has been nice since I bought it a month ago. [0] https://raindrop.io

Not bad it looks more like memex to me but they offer $28 dollar yearly plan

I have written my own tool, StaticMarks[0]. I maintain my bookmarks in plain YAML files and generate a static web app on every change.

I save them in my browser, I really don't get the need for 3rd party apps, text search, paid services or huge systems that contain 1000s of bookmarks.

What are you guys saving that's so important to you?

If you're a subscriber they do full-text search and archiving.

WordPress and PressIt plug-in.

Searchable, accessible from anywhere, and I own it, no worries about service shutting down.

Assuming by your non-specific 'bookmarks', you mean Browser Bookmarks:

Periodically, (meaning 'when I remember') I save my current browser bookmarks as a .html file in a specific 'bookmarks' folder in my 'Documents' directory. These files get named 'bookmarks_YYMMDD', thus they are automatically sorted by date.

Being .html files, they are automatically also plain text files, and can be searched easily using standard tools like 'grep'.

Can we have a Chrome bookmark button using this method or only manually add urls in wordpress?
