I'm with Aaron here.  Is the sole reason for this is to get your RSS 
reader to understand bookmarks?

I'm sensing this is just a way to take the 'easy way out' of getting 
bookmarks crammed into various RSS reading mechanisms.  It's not 
really designed to do this.  Not that it *can't* be used in this 
manner but that it's going to run up against some hassles.

Wouldn't one's history of websites travelled correlated against  
bookmarks be more valuable?  That way you could share what you've 
been surfing as it relates to your bookmarks.

So just munge the history file, compare it against the bookmarks and 
stuff THAT into an RSS document.
