There is a lot of good content out there, tutorial posts, youtube videos; lots of links! What does the crowd here use for bookmarking great links? Default browser bookmarks or any special tools?
I have tested several Google Chrome extensions and I wasn't convinced by any of them, so that's why I am sticking with Firefox + Xmarks.
The native Firefox bookmark managing is pretty handy, Cmd+B and you toggle it, and searching is instantaneous. I can have my bookmarks open while I see the page on the main window (something lacking on chrome).
I also like to be able to add 'separators' and I only miss that the search would also pick folders (I need to go to chrome for it).
I also use Pocket, but it is a different use case for me. I need the bookmarks to keep my 'resources' about different technologies, not to keep my reading list (where I use pocket).
Another alternative would be Evernote + Evernote Web Clipper. Although that could clutter your Evernote library if you use it extensively for your notes.
I actually have almost an entire file system on my bookmarks bar. Probably more links than files on my home machine.
Work > All work related links Life > Including bills, useful gov websites, emails, financial, bank, and health learning> A tab for pretty much every language with sub tabs of videos, tutorials, articles with all their own content
Coding > Pretty much everything, Apis, docs, manuals, usefull npm packages, cloud services, language downloads
SharedTabs> Place all bookmarks here from other devices to see them on my home computer as well. Mostly bookmarks that wont be there very long and will get categorized later.
Entertainment> all that fun stuck and social media
Server > all server related information broken down into sub tabs Ideas > ideas I have and researched links about those ideas
I would say I am very productive because of my bookmarks tab. I have the internet bookmarked for my convenience. It would be nice to have a more useful tooling system though.

If I ever need to read an article again , because of the knowledge in it or quotes from it, it is easier to just google than trying to organize a big pile of bookmarks. Google then also comes up with a lot more sources which help me cross-check and get more opinions and sources on the topic.
if i don't read them instantly (which i rarely do if it's not work related), I just build collections on g+ and post to them so i can read them l8eron.
for application relevant credentials + entrypoints i store them encrypted with revelation so i can share the data with other linux users.
the rest is mainly in my brain :) but everything that deems me relevant will end up on g+ so I have a simple collection :)
I would use hashnode for it but I don't wanna abuse the their database with "off topic" links :)
but I like the pocket idea and a friend of mine told me about online bookmark storages :) but i was to lazy to check them out :)
For me, it's nice to have Pocket, since a weeks ago i used again and categorize all the article with the tags you want, you have a chrome extension that is very nice :)
Default browser bookmarks categorized in folders and subfolders. For instance, Web development->PHP->Laravel. Sometimes stuff gets outdated so I remove it.

I don't like keeping these bookmarks just to myself so I'm currently using a service called Stashes.io to curate programming resources (particularly in web development) and share them here: https://stashes.io/users/sunny. It's not as feature-filled as I would like (no browser extension, no personal search), but it's simple enough where I can organize through collections (aka stashes) and simply add links. I also talked with the developer for a bit and he seems pretty cool, so I hope he gets time to work on this project more in the future.
For everyday websites/apps that I visit, I use Opera's speed dial and bookmarks bar. I also do the "keep interesting articles open in tabs until I read them" which works because I never ended up reading the articles I put in my Pocket or Read-It-Later lists. For other stuff like YouTube videos, I just use the "Watch Later" feature or whatever the particular service provides.
