LinkStatusChecker

I wrote a small shell script that checks your bookmarks from BibSonomy and del.icio.us whether they’re still downloadable, i.e. not broken. This way you can discover links that return 404s and the like.

You can download the tool as tar.gz or zip file.

Usage

Open linkstatuschecker.sh and set these variables:

BIBSONOMY_USERNAME
Your BibSonomy user name.
BIBSONOMY_PASSWORD
Your BibSonomy API key.
DELICIOUS_USERNAME
Your del.icio.us user name.
DELICIOUS_PASSWORD
Your del.icio.us password.

After that you’re all set. Start the script from the command line and it starts to gather your bookmarks and checks whether the links are broker or not.
