I've spent a hard time reorganizing my Google Bookmarks until few reloads later...

There are things like "shared with me" and private, so there'll be public bookmark? (hmm... smells delicio.us)

I check my other account but it was the same old ui. So maybe it's rolled out for some users.

ok.. now my two accounts now have the same ui...

just visit this Google Bookmarks Team's Public List:
https: //www.google.com/bookmarks/
l#!threadID=GMQLX334AZGw/BDQK0ggoQ4KG3gPIk

click the logo, then sign in again.

They're trying hard:
Google Notebook
Google Search Wiki
Google SideWiki
Google Bookmarks
Google Chrome Bookmarks
Google Chrome Bookmarks in Docs
Google What's Popular (discontinued http://www.google.com/labs/popgadget/world)
Google Reader Notes
Google Buzz
Google Tasks (but can't be shared, yet)

When will Google merge Chrome bookmarks and bookmarks ?

WHen you click on the 'Add' button without filling in a link a popup opens with Google Search, Image Search, Video Search and Google Docs links (documents, presentations, spreadsheets).

I moved over to Chrome Bookmarks, assuming that Google Bookmarks would be discontinued. Having two sets of bookmarks is bad enough. Two stored by the same company is just crazy.

All of my bookmarks stay synced with chrome and xmarks . . .not adding this 3rd layer . . .

This is appears to be a rebirth of Google Notebook.

Similarities:
   – These bookmark "lists" have sub-sections, exactly like notebook
   – You can comment on a bookmark
   – You can comment on a list, this acts like text-only notes (as apposed to those relating to a web page)
   – You can "clip" content within a page using the Google toolbar "Save selected part of this page" option (in the bookmarks menu)

Differences/Regressions:
   – You can't tag a bookmark when in list view
   – The text-only comments can't be ordered in the list or put in sections
   – The clippings (of a section of a page) don't include formatted text or links

Hopefully ,future evolutions of this will improve all this. Oh! And hoping a GData API will be released for it finally.
