For global bookmarks, what we do is have a desktop shortcut to the attached 
Perl/Tk script.  You also need a file, in our 
case /usr/local/lib/hgsbookmarks setup as

GCSE Revision|http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/
Linux Desktop Manual|http://www.iosn.net/training/end-user-manual
OpenOffice Tutorials|http://inpics.net/
etc etc

We leave individual booksmarks to the user.
