My favorite for #4 is Google's +1. You need a Google Plus account. +1 is like Facebook like, only it boosts the ranking of that link whenever you are logged in and search. Not every page has a +1 button, but there is a chrome plugin for that. Side effect: the links you +1 are boosted for your G+ friends too, so the bookmarks are sort of public.

Yeah what I want is a cluster of links that is always "floating" no matter how i tagged them and no matter how long it's been since I bookmarked them.

So +1 doesn't really work since I want to tag them #LinksINeedNowwAndThenButAlways

Not gonna work for me. First thing I do after installing a browser is to install ghostery and disable all the social buttons.

Also, wouldn't you be exposing yourself to spam from all the sites you +1 ?

I could be wrong here, but I don't think you get inbound posts in your G+ stream (or email) from +1s, unlike FB "Likes" which give the owner the ability to post to your New Feed. On G+ you have to go and explicitly "Circle" a business / web site to see their posts.
