I lost my bookmarks

Backup your bookmarks/favorites people. You never know when you might lose them... like I did, damnit.

I used to go to cool websites... what were they? Sux. I've got a handful I remember. Like Smitten Kitchen

Help me out a bit by giving me a few of your fav's will ya?

But I just lost all mine recently too, so I ain't got much more.

Sucks to lose your bookmarks. I've had that happen.... ugh.

Have fun rebuilding them and finding new sites!

BoingBoing.net

Are you sure they are gone? They're normally in a folder c:\Documents and Settings\[account name]\favorites.

What browser are you using? Have you ever used another browser? Maybe some of them were imported and you can recover some from there.

The computer is gone... well the hard drive anyway.

Thanks for the tips. GD - Boingboing was one I'd forgotten. alphabassettgrrl - most of those are some I've never read and look forward to reading. Looks like fun!

Who else here likes to browse the internet? Where do you go?

Am I the only one who hovers over KB's links before I click them?

You are definitely not the only one who does that!
