Social Bookmarking explodes
Bryan Alexander notes that the number of Social Bookmarking services is exploding. I noticed it as well and tried several services, but always stay with del.icio.us. The main problem I have is that I have already a big set of bookmarks. Some services allow me to import from del.icio.us, but not to export. So I do not try those services as they will lock me in. The Social Bookmark services should be made more Web 2.0 aware. For one thing that means allowing users to export the bookmarks, but also to import the bookmarks. It would be even better if they would share the bookmarks between them. Then I would go to the service provider with the best social networking or search services. And it would be even better if these services would pick up my bookmark feed and add it automatically to their service.
