The link pages on this site are a simple dump of my pinboard bookmarks. This allows me to search them from this site and ensures I have a backup, but it remains much easier to browse them on the pinboard site (via previous link). Btw, I highly recommend pinboard. They provide simple no-nonsense functionality, the pinboard blog is refreshingly honest and their support is quick, friendly and helpful. It's well worth the small cost. And in case you're wondering, I am not affiliated with pinboard in any way - I just like the cut of their jib!
