Ma.gnolia, a very popular bookmarking site experienced data corruption and loss. Ma.gnolia is one of the leaders in social bookmarking and community sites like StumbleUpon, del.icio.us, Reddit among many others. The site continues to be offline while repairs are being made and founder Larry Haff has posted a new update that says attempts at restoring user data have been unsuccessful. In the meantime, it provides users to use some useful tools that let the users grab a portion of the user’s bookmarks for safekeeping.

Putting up a notice to its users to tell them what was going on keeps panic at a low, and more importantly–does not make people think you’re shutting down and taking their data or content with you.
