ma.gnolia.com (http://ma.gnolia.com) is pretty, nice elegant aesthetic but is new and seems rather limited in features. Its emphasis appears to be on social bookmarks/sharing.-allen (March 01, 2006, 09:02 AM)
... to re-comment on ma.gnolia,... It has ... become very convenient/usable. Bookmark and tag management is great and the social aspects are implemented really smartly. Plus, it looks great. :)Does ma.gnolia have an API so third-party tools can be developed for it?-allen (September 08, 2006, 08:26 PM)
I use the Diigo toolbar (http://www.diigo.com/) because it lets me post to many social bookmarking sites:[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
(as you can see it now includes ma.gnolia too)
The point of having the same thing socially bookmarked all over the place? Well for once I get an extra backup copy of my bookmarks, and secondly certain pages or sites might get extra attention if I choose to make the bookmark public.-housetier (September 12, 2006, 10:58 PM)
Yes, ma.gnolia does have an api.... Furthermore, they're in the process of further expanding it to support del.icio.us' api, since so many applications use it.... Handy for already made applications that use the del.icio.us api,...So I can use applications written for del.icio.us on ma.gnolia? That sounds cool. I guess that means I'll be able to import ma.gnolia bookmarks to StumbleUpon.-allen (September 12, 2006, 08:07 PM)
... but using the ma.gnolia native api would give you access to more advanced, proprietary ma.gnolia features.So what features would I be missing that ma.gnolia's proprietary API has?-allen (September 12, 2006, 08:07 PM)
One feature ... is the unique name ma.gnolia assigns to each and every bookmark. Essentially, it's an automatically generated tinyurl ala tinyurl.com.I'm trying to decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing?-allen (September 12, 2006, 08:07 PM)

You mentioned tinyurl.com. What I don't like about their URLs is I never know where their mystery URL is taking me. I would rather see the real URL before clicking on it so I know where I'm being taken before getting there. I would like to avoid pages I've already explored.One feature ... is the unique name ma.gnolia assigns to each and every bookmark.

I don't see any downside to it -- everybook mark you have is one more step to easy sharing,... what could be bad about it?-allen (September 13, 2006, 06:07 AM)
