Ok, Craig--well I've gotta BOOKMARK this to come back to it to learn about BOOKMARKING in a more efficient manner.

Oh, by the way--I honored you in one of my posts--you haven't seen it yet, I don't think.

Craig, you never stop inspiring me!  I loved seeing you in front of the camera and seeing how you put your intro in and finished up at the end.

I'm happy to report that I've been using Google Bookmarks since April 15th which must've been the day I sat down to digest your post.  (I'm sure I wasn't avoiding finishing up my taxes!)  I took a little screenshot so you can see how I've incorporated bookmarks into my work habits.  Oh, and I started using Chrome at the same time and haven't looked back.

BTW, thanks for the shoutout!  I was busily grabbing the screenshot for my comment when you surprised me by mentioning my YouTube embed post. Brought a big smile to my face on what's already been a pretty fine day!

One of the best features of Google Bookmarks is that they're portable -- accessible from anywhere you can sign into your Google account.

Hi Craig - Thanks for doing a video.  I was able to really comprehend the steps and and the concept.  I have great difficulty with text explanations of tech stuff because the unfamiliar tech terminology alone throws me, let alone the ability to grasp the explanation.  As an illustration, I would be able to better exlain what I'm trying to say if I did a video.  Also, please, I would have liked you to show me how to add Google Bookmarks to my toolbar.

I just reblogged with this notation:

I also use Delicious but Google has so much cool stuff you can keep it simple and go this route. I am really anxious for the icloud to come out the Fall from Apple. My bookmarks are not syncing correctly on Mobile Me so this is not connected on my stuff to avoid all the error messages. This might be the best solution for now!
