The story goes ahead: today I've found one more solution - so elegant and simple that I can't remain silent.

Meet [b][url=http://fav20.com]Fav20.com[/url][/b]

Looks fresh and easy but in contrast with LinkaGoGo it handles bookmarks (BM) in modern visual way.

The button added to the BM-panel works fine opening your private page on Fav20.com if you are logged in there ([sub]and when you are not - opens the so to say 'general' page of the service - not yours but working the same way as private and saved using cookies as I can conclude[/sub]) - and visually adds there thumbnail-link to your newly created BM. Just fine!

Management tools are pretty modest compared with ones on LinkaGoGo, but every bit is made so attractive and highly-usable ([b][color=#000099]mootools[/color][/b] used to create this beauty as I can see from the page source) that I can't resist to all the fun that I get using Fav20.com!

Comparison of LinkaGoGo and Fav20 looks much like 'Linux vs MacOS': one powerful but ugly a bit - and another offering only essentials but with orgasmic interoperability!

And like MacOS, [url=http://fav20.com]Fav20.com[/url] surely has some limitations:

1) No tree folder structure: you can add unlimited 'categories', but they cannot be placed one within another so actually they are 'tags'.
For me this is a serious limitation because not every user can hold 'tags collection' convenient and workable - every time you add new BM, the temptation is to add more new tags, so one day your 'catalogue' becomes almost useless.

I can recommend tagged cataloging only for perfectly self-organized minds.

2) After adding page no return to bookmarked page happens. You have to do it manually if you plan to work with page further.

3) Adding script saves (and thewhole service supports) only page address and title - and the latter is truncated after 24 characters.
This wouldn't be a big problem but sometime page title (primarily - with non-latin chars) cannot be handled (as I suppose) and no adding happens. Just error appears and I can't precisely determine the mandatory conditions of script refuses.

However, when it fails to add page by bookmarklet, you have the simplest option add it manually copy-pasting address to the special field:

Sorry for blurry screens - I'm testing now free softwares and services for fast screenshot sharing and my [b]Jet Screenshot[/b] allows only JPEG saving in free version...

Take a look at [b][url=http://fav20.com]Fav20.com[/url][/b] site - and you would see that all is visually perfect there.

So despite of noted drawbacks I can highly recommend this service for everyday use - primarily for artistic-minded people.[/quote]
