I guess like most of you, I've accumulated a lot of modeling bookmarks from tips and tricks, walk arounds / pics, places to buy supplies and kits, etc. The pile is getting staggering but I don't want to loose any. Has anyone figured out a better way to "file" these links other than setting up folders and using the "favorites" area of the browser. There are some bookmark manager downloads available but nothing really "sticks out"........ Is there a good "on line" area to store this information. I am a little afraid of downloading anything these days because of all the malicious stuff going on.
Slightly OT / Bookmarking all these references

Bookmarks (under the Mozilla based browsers, anyway) are just a set of links in an HTML file. What I do is to periodically duplicate my bookmarks file and store the copy elsewhere on my hard drive.
Then I can also use the browser's HTML editor to cut it down to collections of links that I can e-mail to interested parties if I want. The document just opens as a page of links in a browser.
Other than that, within my browser I make and keep categorized folders for them like everyone else...

In Firefox etc, if you select 'Organize Bookmarks', a window opens that gives a good overview of your bookmarks. More importantly, it allows you to search your bookmarks.
