I use ClipBoard.com almost exclusively although I recently started to use Evernote and it's working out well so far. Both have easy-to-use Chrome extensions that make bookmarking and tagging a breeze.

#12Chrome. I don't bookmark a ton of stuff, just things that might be difficult to find again in the future. Otherwise a minute on Google will usually help me find whatever. I used to be a fan of Delicious but the browser extensions and stuff never worked in a manner I was fond of.
Pretty sure I'll end up building my own mini-app eventually for quickly archiving links, so I tailor it however I want.

#13I want a plugin in syncs somewhere private and not anything akin to del.icio.us. I've had trouble getting Xmarks with private servers working though this may no longer be the case. Any recommendations?

#14I use tumblr's bookmarklet to grab the links. It is crazy fast to post links/quotes/videos etc on tumblr and I don't care about the tags.

#15I use zootool, pretty easy and simple.
I'm going to have to try kippt that @eduadordm recommended, it looks sweet.

#16I pretty much put everything I want to keep for future reference or reading in Pinboard.in.

#17I use Chrome for all bookmarks I want to share publicly at work, home and etc. For private bookmarks, I use my desktop. (And this is the main reason I moved away from Ubuntu + Unity. Someone had the bright idea of disallowing URL dragging to the desktop.)

#18Evernote. Although a lot more than a bookmarking tool, once you fit it into your workflow, it is a pretty amazing tool for curating all kinds of things, and you can easily share it across all your devices. I couldn't live without it now.

#19I know HN follows the "less is more" philosophy, but one thing I'd really like is the ability to "save" a submission like you can on reddit. As it is, the only way I can do that is to comment, which probably isn't very good for anybody.
Just upvote, then:

#20I always save my bookmarks in Firefox.
To make sure I don't lose them next time I reinstall Windows I use an add-on called FEBE that backs-up all my bookmarks(among other things) into a directory.
Next time I have a vanilla Firefox I reinstall FEBE and import all my bookmarks.
I really don't need to spend the extra time to go see another website.
Another trick I use is to delete the bookmark name and only leave the favicon to showup. It saves space and I'm only one click away from my favorite website.
If you tried other services and returned to Chrome then it seems you're looking for a specific feature and you're not finding it, but you also didn't tell us what it is.
Just use Chrome and try to categorize your bookmarks as best you can.
Here is a simple(and a bit ugly) website that lets you bookmark sites. I don't use it but I recommended it before and some people seemed to like it: http://fav20.ro/
