Cocoal.icio.us: social bookmarks for your desktop

This application falls squarely into the 'Coolest Thing Since Sliced Bread' category: a Mac OS X client for interfacing with your del.icio.us link collection on your desktop.

If you don't already have a del.icio.us account, run, don't walk, over to
del.icio.us and get yourself an entirely free one. It solves the problem of keeping your bookmark collection organized enough to actually be useful. Plus, it makes your bookmarks entirely browser-independent, without the need to import or sync between applications. As if that weren't enough, it enables you to share your bookmark collection publicly, and subscribe to other folks' collections of bookmarks you find interesting.

Cocoal.icio.us is a freeware GUI interface into the web-based
del.icio.us software, developed by Buzz Andersen of
Sci-Fi Hi-Fi. The interface will look familiar to users of the RSS reader
NetNewsWire, with a list of link categories in the left pane, a list of links in each category at the top right, and a preview pane which loads the actual URL, which is fantastic because you don't even need to leave the application to view the page you've bookmarked.

For anyone in despair about the sorry state of their disorganized bookmark collection, look no further than the winning combination of del.icio.us and
Cocoal.icio.us to get you back on track.
