WebnoteHappy, my bookmark manager of choice, has been updated to version 1.3.2. This minor update includes shortcut support for the recently released Camino 1.6, the ability to tab to the tag browser, the ability to access tags via Applescript, and numerous bug fixes (one Leopard-specific).

For more details, see the release notes. If you’ve been wondering how to handle your bookmarks, WebnoteHappy is a great option. The only black mark against the program, in my opinion, is the lack of integration with Ma.gnolia (it’s Del.icio.us-only). Still a great example of a program that makes simple tagging just work.

Pukka, a Mac del.icio.us client, has been updated to version 1.6.6. This minor update finally quashes the last of the Leopard stability bugs that have plagued Pukka, so it’s a must-have if you’ve been experiencing crashes under Leopard. Tiger users may as well just grab it when the auto-update notices it.

For more information, see the 1.6.6 announcement, or the more informative 1.6.6 beta announcement.

WebnoteHappy, probably the best of the Mac bookmark managers, and Booxter, an intriguing alternative to Delicious Library (with admittedly mediocre tag support), are offered as MacSanta featured items today December 8, 2007 only for 20% off with the coupon “MACSANTA07″. If you miss out, though, you’ll still be able to get them for 10% for the rest of December.

I definitely recommend trying out WebnoteHappy if you haven’t already. Although it has some limitations (like only supporting del.icio.us and not my favored Ma.gnolia), it’s still a very nicely designed piece of software with solid tagging support.

Pukka, the del.icio.us client for Mac OS X, has been updated to 1.6.5. This minor update includes many changes and optimizations to minimize the possibility of getting throttled by the del.icio.us API, along with better error reporting to keep the user in the loop. The update also fixes a number of other problems and potential problems, including improvements to Spotlight performance and fixes for a couple of small memory leaks.

For the full blow-by-blow, see the Pukka 1.6.5 announcement.

Bookdog, a bookmarks manager for Mac, has been updated to version 5, an update that includes not only a simplified interface but also del.icio.us support and support for tags. The software has been released as beta software due to the extensive changes that have gone into it, but because it fixes several Leopard problems and is just generally more powerful, Sheep Systems recommends that all users upgrade. For more information, see the Bookdog release notes.

Bookdog is probably the most feature-rich bookmarks manager available, but its interface (while simplified and definitely better than version 4) is still very complex and not at all visually appealing. You have to make an effort to learn to use Bookdog, although you will be rewarded by being able to sync a lot more information across your browsers than other solutions provide. It’s pretty unfortunate, but despite its power Bookdog still feels somewhat like an OS 9 application.

Well, I’ve certainly been out of it recently thanks to this weekend being a bit busier than I expected it to be, but in the interim Pukka, the Mac del.icio.us client, has been updated to 1.6.4. This minor update once more brings more compatibility fixes for Leopard.

For more information, see the 1.6.4 blog announcement.

WebNoteHappy, the tag-friendly bookmarks manager, has been updated to 1.3.1. This minor update includes a couple of Leopard fixes to the tagging field, and the ability to select bookmarks with enter and delete them with forward delete.

For more information, see the 1.3.1 blog announcement. The update is available via the WebNoteHappy website or the program’s internal auto-updating.

Pukka, a del.icio.us client, has been updated to 1.6.3. This minor update fixes bugs under Tiger and Leopard, including a hang and potential crash. Unless you’re experiencing a lot of hanging and crashing, you’ll probably be safe updating via the auto-update feature the next time you launch Pukka.

To hear it from the horse’s mouth, see the 1.6.3 blog announcement.

Pukka, a desktop del.icio.us client, has been updated to 1.6.2. This minor update brings full compatibility with OS 10.5 (with the caveat that developers weren’t given the Gold Master, so there may be one or two more bugs to quash) and some minor bug fixes.

For details, please see the 1.6.2 blog announcement.

WebnoteHappy, the happy little bookmarks organizer that loves tagging and del.icio.us, has been updated to version 1.3 (the first update in almost a year). This update includes a quick-add hotkey (F5 by default) to quickly toss bookmarks into WebnoteHappy without worrying about tags and whatnot (including Growl notification), support for DevonAgent and Opera 9, adjustable font sizes for the eagle-eyed and near-sighted among us, a resizable tag browser, and more.

For more details about the update, please see the release notes. Despite some limitations, WebnoteHappy is well worth checking out if you’re in the market for a bookmarks organizer.
