It's Better Bookmarks! (working in FF 1.5.x, FF 2.x, IE 6, IE 7, Safari 2.x, Opera 9.x)

Along with Yahoo! Answers (though weening away), I've implemented for Bookmarks, the drag-n-drop functionality, ajaxy stuff (all with the YUI libraries) and symfony integration.

There's the obligatory States-centric webapp as well as localized flavors for your viewing pleasure:

- Better Bookmarks Beta [US: beta.bookmarks.yahoo.com]

Have fun! And let me know what you think!
