Default Mobleo.net: Social Bookmarking for Mobiles

http://www.mobleo.net/

One thing I've found is that mobile devices typically have poor bookmarking features -- most programs don't have a typical way to sync them to the desktop, and ActiveSync's Favorites sync isn't that reliable (and presumes IE). Finally, these techniques have no social sharing ability (like del.icio.us, amongst others). Until now: enter Mobleo.net.



There are multiple ways to enter and share bookmarks, including a shared pool or via email; bookmarks are accessed by visiting a personalized site on the mobile device. For the del.icio.us users, there appears to be mobile access to it as well. I presume one could even set up some kind of mobile sync by setting up del.icio.us sync with the desktop browser, although I haven't tried it. If you give it a spin, let us know what you think.

Unless I'm missing something in the trial, I'm completely underwhelmed.
There is no capacity to bookmark the page when you're actually on it. You have to keep another window open and cut and paste the url.
And that's what I do with del.icio.us, so may as well just use that. No advantage to this.
Skweezer, does have the capacity to bookmark directly, but unfortunately, no way of organizing.
If anyone knows of a better solution, please help!
(no if someone could build a browser with a post it button!, if only multiie or pieplus had that.)

Default mobilicio.us

For an mobile-friendly interface to del.icio.us-Bookmarks see http://mobilicio.us/
By default they only show bookmarks which are tagged with mtag but you can show every bookmark and they also call the bookmarked page via google's mobilizer to save bandwith.

This one looks to be a mobleo.net/del.icio.us of strictly mobile-formatted links.

It now looks like Mobleo.net supports tagging/bookmarking directly from the current page. They now have google mobilizer type functionality which reformats pages for mobile devices. They add a small section to the bottom of the page which allows you to tag/bookmark the current page as well as the ability to go to another page by entering another url. It seems to work well.
