Delicious, YouTube & Pinboard

Owen Densmore

After the YouTube founder's purchase of Delicious, I checked my pinboard account (which mirrors delicious) and find I prefer it now .. quieter and simpler and faster.

I'll probably use both for a while, but now that both have Chrome extensions, I think pinboard has the edge.  And both work well in Chrome's "search engines" so typing "pin foo" finds any pinboard bookmarks with foo in tags or url/title.

Pinboard is here http://pinboard.in/ for folks who haven't used it yet.

For what its worth: Chrome & its extensions, plus Delicious/Pinboard has drastically reduced my browser bookmark usage.  I did a huge clean up over a couple of days and really prefer the web based bookmarks.  Chrome sync seems to work now .. a while back it was flaky.  Keeps chrome on multiple devices synched via your google account.
