An online editor for Kindle browser bookmarks file

Organizing the browser bookmarks on a Kindle is a job for a real Jedi
Basically, one can only add a bookmark, rename it or delete it. No sorting, no custom URLs...
This seems to annoy many people (myself included).

To solve the problem, I've created an online Kindle Bookmark Editor.
It takes the binary bookmarks file and enables you to edit it easily and intuitively.
I've tested it with Kindle 3, not sure if other devices are compatible...

I hope you'll find it useful.


P.S. And since this is a developer's forum - here's some technical info.
The bookmarks_wv file is simply a serialized java.util.ArrayList, containing bookmark objects of class com.amazon.ebook.booklet.browser.BookmarkItem. The BookmarkItem, in turn, has only two fields: title and url, both of type String.
The rest was straight-forward
