Do you Social Bookmark?

If you’re like me and have lots of internet bookmarks, do lots of internet research or have multiple computers that you access the web from, then you really should be storing your bookmarks using a Social Bookmarking tool. I have tried many different ones over the years and most of them have been rubbish. However, I recently discovered Mister Wong. Their service is fantastic and kicks the pants off Del.icio.us who are the main contender in this market.

EDIT:

I now use Diigo because Mister Wong has become very, very slow and has also added a captcha “feature” which has slowed down my bookmarking immensely. Diigo is a much betterĀ Social Bookmarking tool and is really geared up for researchers and power users.

Also, remember to backup your bookmarks occasionally because the cloud isn’t perfect.

RE-EDIT:

I have gone back to Delicious as Diigo’s full text search is extremely limited. I really wanted to like them but there are just a few things I need in a Social Bookmarking tool and without those features, it’s a deal breaker. The new Delicious interface is great and just lets me do what I need to do.
