I am sorry to note that Yahoo is going to shut down Delicious. It was a path-breaking site and while I am not a regular user of their 'recommend to others' approach, I did have some bookmarks there. There cannot be a doubt about Delicious's popularity.
If you have an account there and do not know where to go, you are welcome to try out EasyBM. We are pretty certain you will find it very useful and will stick to using this for the extremely easy to use interface, more than anything else.
All your bookmarks will be available to you in a single, easy to manage page from where you can 1-click to your favorite destination. You can also store your server login pages, research sources and other such private links because the easyBM bookmarks are, well, private to you only.
It is easy to migrate to easyBM. Here is a step by step guide:
1. Login to your delicious account.
2. Click on Settings in the top right corner.
3. Choose Export / Backup Bookmarks in the settings page.
4. Click on Export in the next screen. Your bookmarks will be saved in a HTML file (named delicious-date.htm) on your computer. Note the location.
5. Register a new account at www.easyBM.com if you do not already have an account. Confirm your email address by clicking on the verification link in the email sent to you.
6. Login to your easyBM account.
7. Click on Import option.
8. Select the bookmarks file you just downloaded from delicious.
9. Click on Import button and you are done.
Your bookmarks will be put under a folder called Favorites. Now you can create more groups and move the bookmarks to those.
Happy bookmarking!

Are you wondering how to open your favorite sites in a new window (or tab)? We have extensive facilities for this feature in the easyBM page. Here are some of the ways you can do this:
1. You can right-click on any link on your bookmarks page and choose "Open in a new window" or "Open in a new tab".
2. While adding the bookmark (or while editing the bookmark), you can specify that the bookmarked site has to be opened in a new window. Now a simple click on the bookmark will open it in a new window.
3. On your Profile page, you can select one the 3 options – a. open all sites in same window, b. open all the sites in a new window, c. use the saved setting. If you set the 2nd option here, all your sites will open in a new window always.
As you can see, you enjoy a vast variety of ways in which you can access your bookmarked sites with easyBM, your favorite online bookmarking manager.
We have some new feature enhancements in your favorite online bookmarking tool. These are:
- The first one has been requested so often. While we do have a provision to open any bookmark in the same window or a new window, users wanted to have a simplified way to set all of them to open in the same or new windows, specially when they had imported these. Now you can just head over to the profile section and specify your preference.
- You can now collapse all groups in 1-click. If you think you have several groups open and are wanting to simplify the view, just collapse all groups and then open selectively.
- You can also expand all the groups with 1-click. This is very useful when you are trying to locate a particular bookmark. Expand all the groups and press ctrl-F to search for your required bookmark.
I really hope you are enjoying the easyBM online bookmarking system and telling your friends and colleagues about it too. If you wish a certain feature were there, feel free to let me know by posting a comment here.
Firefox has released a new version, 3.6 and EasyBM plugin has been updated too. You can download the latest EasyBM plugin for Firefox here.
This plugin is very easy to install and lets you bookmark the page you are currently browsing very easily. Just click on the bookmark icon in the right side of the status bar and a pop-up window will open up. Choose the group where you want to add this site and edit the title and description. A simple click on "Save Bookmark" will save it for you.
Today I am very excited to share with you, a new development in easyBM online bookmarking service. Now you can access your favorite links from your iPhone or any other Smartphone with GPRS, Edge or 3G. You will get all your groups and be able to see the individual links therein for the good old 1-click access to the sites.
Have you ever wanted to visit some of your favorite sites with a mobile phone because you needed to check that important thing? Or as it happened to me recently, access your server control panel while in a meeting? I am sure you have felt the pain of having to remember that cryptic URL and type it on that cramped keyboard. Missed your desktop because you could just open your easyBM bookmarks page and clicked once to open the site? Now you can relax.
What's more – you don't have to remember a new URL for mobile access. Just visit your regular URL like www.easyBM.com/username and the system auto-detects that you are visiting the site from a mobile and redirects you to the special mobile version of the site.
I am sincerely hoping this will make your life a little simpler. If you enjoy the new feature or encounter a bug, please do write to us from the feedback section (only available in the desktop version – you don't want to type all that in your mobile).
You might be using the Firefox plugin to add online bookmarks to your easyBM account much more easily. If you have already upgraded or are planning to upgrade your Firefox to the latest 3.5 version, you should download the latest version of the plugin here. If you download the plugin through Firefox, it will automatically prompt you to install the same.
The Firefox bookmarking plugin to bookmark your site easily has been updated for compatibility with the version 3 of Firefox. You may uninstall the current plugin and download a fresh copy here. Just install it and use it. Have fun!
