Some of you have perhaps noticed (and maybe used) the links and the RSS icons I have at the top of this page. Until yesterday, clicking on “My bookmarks” brought you to my del.icio.us page as I use del.icio.us systematically to bookmark interesting web pages as soon as I come across them.
I also use Google Reader a lot. In fact I currently have 113 subscriptions in it which basically means that I read hundreds of posts daily. Google Reader also has a bookmarking feature which I use a lot but unfortunately only adds the entry to my Shared Items (i.e. not del.icio.us)
This means that I bookmark interesting pages using two distinct services. I’ve used Yahoo! Pipes to combine the two using this pipeline:
And voilà:
- My consolidated bookmarks in HTML format
- An RSS feed of the above (wrapped by FeedBurner because I want to have some statistics)
Have fun!

And it works
!!!!! Awesome! Loved the pipes. I still remember how people were being skeptic when pipes was released. Yahoo Pipes is brilliant.
Kudos to Yahoo and to you for using it.

Thanks.
And the sky is the limit. I’m playing around with it at the moment and it’s cool
