Deerang 2002 on 17 Dec 10Has anyone tried Licorize?

. cupidsbow on 17 Dec 10No, I haven't tried Licorize. I've tried Connotea and Zotero for uni, but ended up choosing Diigo, because it was more flexible. I'm thinking about giving the Google bookmarking a go. Is it any good?

Deerang 2002 on 17 Dec 10I've just signed up for it. It has a really cute interface and looks like it might have a lot of applications as well. However, I'm not sure about the fandom aspects of it...it's still uploading my bookmarks right now. I'll try to find out more. But I have a feeling that Diigo might be the site that everyone's eventually going to settle for (the money expense at Pinboard will probably be a detracting factor)

. cupidsbow on 17 Dec 10Yeah, Diigo seems to be the frontrunner at the moment. It's already got a fair number of fannish users, and is handling the load okay so far too -- some of the other services are down altogther, or reporting very slowed service. I'm curious about Licorize now -- let us know what it's like. But I'm also considering Evernote and Google Bookmarks (I think this might be the easiest for a backup, even though it doesn't look so great for networking). I think I'll have a play over the next few days (too tired tonight).

m silverstar on 18 Dec 10I'd prefer not to be dependent on Google, that seems like trouble around issues of pornography and copyright. Really, having a fandom-specific system would be so much safer.
-
. cupidsbow on 18 Dec 10Yeah, I was thinking of using Google as a private backup, while looking for somethng better. But a fannish solution is the ideal one. If we have a service that lets us integrate OTW sites and DW with a social networking system, along with out existing libraries, it would be like fandom Nirvana. :)

dossier 1013 on 18 Dec 10Google bookmarks is not a public, social, bookmarking tool. I use google bookmarks for things I don't care to share at all: research for stories, links for hacks, cracks, tutorials, stuff on my to-read pile. It is easy to use with bookmarklets, and a quick interface. You can export public lists, but they are static and do not update if new links are added with the exported label.

. cupidsbow on 18 Dec 10Thanks for the update -- that was kind of the impression I had of Google bookmarks, but hadn't tried them out yet. I actually really like the combination of Diigo and Delicious -- they have complimentary strengths and I get a back-up with no extra effort. I think the only thing that would really tempt me to move to another setup (outside of one or both closing down or becoming unusable) would be a fannish sevice. For that, I'd rearrange everything.
