my bookmarks were starting to get out of hand, so i figured i’d put them into a little database to try to keep them under control. then i figured that since i have to be online to use them, i might as well put a web interface on the bookmarks. i realized that that also solved the problem of having different sets of bookmarks on my computer at work and my home computer. it also means i can access them when i’m on a lab machine or a friend’s computer. anyway, there’s no reason to keep them to myself. so here’s the rough version of my bookmarks database. it’s even got a simple search feature. not too sophisticated yet and a bit rough around the edges (the search isn’t yet case-insensitive for example) but it seems to work pretty well. the listing on the default page is the 20 most recent bookmarks. once i polish it up a little, i may let other people add bookmarks and i may even integrate it with /dev/random.
