Naah, not really.

I do something similar myself, mainly because I move around so much and
don't always have access to my desktop machine.  Keeping all my bookmarks
securely on my web server means I can get at them from anywhere.

I was originally intending to try to make it a commercial service, but work
and stuff has got in the way of finishing it.  There's a working version
(hopefully secure and stable, but no guarantees!) at
http://www.bookmark-site.com.

It's running on an SS2 with a PostgreSQL database.  It's dog-slow.  The
intention is to only use the SS2 for development and testing, and to use
a cheap-but-fast Intel box or my SS1000 when it's a bit more complete.

If you save all your money for three years, you'll be able to afford this
new computer.  If, however, you blow all your money on poker, booze and
loose women - you'll still be able to afford it in three years.
