I've been using Diigo <http://www.diigo.com/profile/cilkay> since 
Magnolia.com blew up and took a bunch of my data with it. One of the 
things that appealed to me about Diigo was that every bookmark and its 
associated tags that I saved to Diigo would also be saved to Simpy, 
which has since died, and to Delicious <http://delicious.com/cilkay>, 
which is also dying. That leaves me back in a position I didn't want to 
be in, vulnerable to Diigo blowing up and taking my data with them. Yet 
another thing added to the TODO list that I didn't really want to do. :)
