    This is cool! Similar to one of the goals I'm trying to accomplish with Archivy (https://archivy.github.io) with the broader goal of not just storing your digital presence but also acting as a personal knowledge base.

  4. Notational Velocity for Vim.
    I use nb https://github.com/xwmx/nb for both bookmarks and notetaking. Nb <link> downloads a shallow copy of the link and stores it along with the bookmark. All notes (and consequently bookmarks and their contents) are stored as plain-text markdown files - so there's no dependency on a proprietary format, and all the content becomes searchable. If you're a vim-user, you can also get the notational-fzf-vim plugin (https://github.com/alok/notational-fzf-vim) and point it to the notes/bookmarks folder, and have full fuzzy search over all the content.
