Don't take it wrong, but I'm getting wary of services offering to store my data online for free, especially when I don't know how / if it intend to make money.
Looks good though, I might give it a try even with that issue.
on the same boat.. but have given up on using Chrome for bookmarks. It's too slow on Linux when you've more than 50 tabs.
Firefox loads under a minute with 510 tabs from various tab-groups. (I use a tab-group for each group and field of study and yes I use most tabs actually)
The search in the sidebar is so enormously useful, it helps me to find ANY bookmark made by hitting CTRL+b or middle-click (two-finger tap here). I heavily use tags, which is really making the search better, but I wish these tags could be automatically generated by an algorithm.
So that makes what 4 or 5 new bookmarks extensions for chrome in the last two weeks?
They all suffer from the exact same problem: online and not nearly as fast as the current default option in chrome. Don't get me wrong, I hate the default bookmarks manger in chrome and wish that after 6 years they'd update it already (or at least ad api's that allow someone else to) but all the latest get same basic things wrong while not being very different form one another.
EDIT: I guess I should clarify, I don't mean that online is bad, I used xmarks for a long time, I just don't like online only because it affects retrieval and search rates. There's just no way to beat the speed of a local directory.
[I've installed Dewey, dragdis, and fetching.io. fetching is really more of a history extension than a bookmarking one but the idea behind it is the same. After about two weeks I stopped using Dragdis because the UI makes looking for things impossible and Dewey I installed but never enabled because it was just too much of a hassle]
I think cloud sync is good idea! Because you can access bookmarks not only from your current browser, but also from mobile app/API. In near feature Raindrop will have mobile app and powerful API for third-party developers
This seems to be the exact same as this Chrome extension: https://dragdis.com/
I might be wrong, but there don't seem to be any real differences or improvements compared to Dragdis.
Quick question : Are there any reasons that you opted for a sign-in access instead of an offline access? I prefer offline as I can configure on my machine and sync with the built-in browser sync. If I need to access these bookmarks permanently, I can use
It saves not only bookmarks but associated content depending on page type.
If it's an article, it will be cut and saved with the bookmark.
The same applies to video, photo and presentations.
Also you can share some collections of bookmarks. In future update you can also collaborate with colleagues and friends.
I use pocket for storing everything. It's cross-browser and device so you can easily sync offline to your tablet/phone to read on a plane. http://getpocket.com/
Pocket is fantastic. I tend to open hundreds of tabs and put them into Pocket if I don't have time to read them. It's nice to have them sync to my phone and my tablet so I can read them offline when I have downtime.
I've used xmarks for several years now and I like it. Sometimes it can be awkward when different browsers' conventions both sync in (like Firefox's "Unsorted Bookmarks" appears as a folder in any other browser), but otherwise it's been nice.
