Better Bookmarking?

I have been wondering if there is a better way to do bookmarking. I do two types right now.

1. Chrome Bookmark Bar:
I use this for quick access to sites I use regularly like keyword tools, stock photo sites, forums like this one, etc. I have folders and subfolders and the bookmarks in a hierarchal structure.

2. Evernote:
I use the “clip to Evernote” tool on my computer and mobile devices to save articles to read later and to save web sites and other content into my personal knowledge database.

Years ago, I played with Stumbleupon and Digg, but they didn’t seem as fast as just using the bookmarks toolbar.

But lately I am wondering if I am missing something by not using another system. I noticed Pearltrees mentioned in another thread and it looks intriguing, but I think it would be slower than what I am doing now although the visual aspect is appealing.

I know there are some benefits in social sharing and social discovery using some of the other bookmarking service but are these worth giving up the speed of just using the bookmark toolbar?

What bookmark tool do you all use and what made you choose it?

Thanks
