Delicious is the one intenet resource I use, and that is now on the verge of being sold or shutdown. Here's my idea of an alternative. As always, I like them to be self-sustained, and preferable controllable by my self.
All we need is a web server, and hits to a particular url in which the link to be saved is contained. The url doesnt even need to be active; it just needs to log to the web server's logs. An offline job runs as frequently as needed, trawls the logs, extracts the links and stores it.
Entry and viewing of the link database is mediated through a browser plugin as now, because that's the most common usage anyway.
Simple, and as long as you have a web server (which you should anyway), you're good. The only custom component is the offline job.
