Question

I actually have come across something similar, but I can't remember what it was called, and its install process wasn't well documented. My use case is very simple - I need something I can chuck interesting links into, say why they were interesting, and pull them up in a reasonable manner as needed

Basic requirements

web based access
self hosted
can be run on any reasonable linux host. I'd be fine with something that uses a common database, and either runs its own server, or is in php. I don't really need it to run on shared hosting or anything, just not have super odd requirements
has sensible install documentation

Functional requirements

Needs to allow me to paste in a link, annotate it, and add tags. In short, I want to be able to classify them by tags, or search them by how I remember them
needs to be searchable by keyword (either based on the link, or annotation), tag or date

Stuff that would be nice to have

firefox extension
looks good

Explanation / Answer

I'm using Wallabag for this. It is written in PHP using symfony2, database can be anything from sqlite to mysql to postgresql.

From the feature requirements can do all that you want. The only let down I can see, which annoys me is, that you cant add tags when you store a link. You have to go to the link and add them there. There is an issue for that.
