I can see this being very useful. I can also see it taking a long time to set up, for me. I have a huge bookmark directory, and it'd be great - but only 25 sites? I have a hundred just for one topic! Not even thinking about "humanities" as a subject. Guess I'll do it in my spare time....
One exciting discovery today was Zotero. It's a Firefox extension that's a portable citation manager - and let's you annotate, and save full webpages to work offline. I can see this being very useful, not in the least for keeping my students from attacking with pitchforks when I tell them they'll have to do an annotated bib!
Being able to work offline is important for distance learners, who are often on dialup, and often disconnected - in many senses. I'm thinking of using it to organize my lessons better, or at least easier than switching between sites and cites!
