I use onlinebookmarkmanager.com and am pretty happy with it.

You can start with the already done development of BookMark4u.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Why don't you use ruby on rails?

If I was going to reimplement a bookmark manager, Ruby on Rails would definitely the way to go. But I'm hoping to find a shorter path to the goal than a complete rewrite...
