NY-based Xerpi is what I signal a "favorites manager". When you first load Xerpi, it might look like a startpage (e.g. netvibes, pageflakes, schmedley, yourminis, etc.), but it’s actually a favorites manager. When you signup for an history, you can choose either a blank page or a pre-defined starting point. I selected Technology and was presented with about 10 hyperlinks total. They need to increase that and create 50-100 hyperlinks so that the page seems full and plus offers some good start points for newbies.

They’ve plus created several public xerpi-pages including an iPhone Resources page

and a Free Things to do in NYC page. Xerpi is much more mainstream-targeted than Delicious.

They currently generate revenue by the Google search engine on the site. I am assuming they could additionally do sponsored Xerpi pages and additionally sponsored panels within the Xerpi application.

I’d like to see a panel for the various browsers that lets me keep Xerpi open as a panel while browsing. that would construct it easier than having to keep switching back and forth to the Xerpi app in another tab or window.

Here’s my video review:
