Well, as I mentioned above usng Del.icio.us is great. If you create a new user specifically for these bookmarks and simply add them all using your categories, other people can 'subscribe' to your user account and see all the changes you make. Then, if they want to snag a bookmark to add to their own stack it's a one-click task!

You:
- add link in category / categories as you see fit (basically exactly what you do already, but in a webform specifically tailored for this - you can even add notes)

Me:
- 'copy' link to my account, add my tags (mobile, mtag, and mobleo)

I then use the two mobilizing services Mobleo.net and Mobilici.us that are already hooked into my Del.icio.us account and have immediate mobile access to your links. It's a win-win situation for everyone; you have easy control and editing of all your links that requires minimal effort, we gain immediate mobile use (no sending links to our phones, cut-n-pastes to our own Memopad, whatever) of your work.

I mean no offense here, but keeping a list of links on a forum post is pretty darn inefficient for both you and me; you have to do all this work (and you can't multiple-categorize easily), and I can't easily visit the links from my phone efficiently and/or have easy search/filter capabilities.

I want to enjoy the fruits of your labor (thanks! but without the pain as it currently exists. If desired, you could then post a note (weekly?) just to keep the thread bumped up, "I added 15 new sites this week!" or whatnot.

My $0.02 USD.
