While not a bad solution I personally prefer Roaming access via mod_roaming. Though I still end up shoving around 280k of bookmarks.

Recently to alleviate some of this load I have been trying to not bookmark software (the biggest culprit). Instead (horrors!) I use this as a link on my personal toolbar.

javascript:document.location='https://pthbb.org:3160/snarf/add.cgi?Nam +e='+escape(document.title)+'&URL='+escape(document.location)
This sends the relevant data in a query string to a custom Webmin module I wrote. Where I can expound upon the link in more detail and finally dump into MySQL (uses EZDBI/EZDBI, tres cool). The final results of which can be accessed here. I think it's a pretty good solution though not complete as I currently do not have a system for managing links in the database.

So in the end I guess the releavnt bit is, why not allow posting of the links via CGI? (If SSL w/ 401 authentication or trusted IP dump them straight in, else queue them in a spool to be verified). For me the biggest obstacle in using any other bookmark system is that it must be not much more complicated; read different from accquired habits; than C-d (or whaterver the add bookmark shortcut is for you browser/platform combo). If you allow CGI submissions as well then you use a similar bookmark. Come to think of it how about this for a personal toolbar link for your system as it is:

javascript:document.location='mailto:url-thingy@acme.com?subject='+doc +ument.location

UPDATE: Changed mocha: to javascript:

--
perl -p -e "s/(?:\w);([st])/'\$1/mg"
