I've been looking for similar functionality for a while so I hacked up a
simple function to export the bookmarks of an org file as an html file,
which can then -- at least theoretically ;) -- be imported into your
favorite web browser. I'm an elisp novice, but it seems to work:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-export-html-bookmarks ()
  "Extract bookmarks from the current org file and create an html file that
can be imported into a web browser."
  (interactive)
  (let ((file (file-name-nondirectory (buffer-file-name)))
	bookmarks)
  (save-excursion
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (while (re-search-forward org-bracket-link-analytic-regexp nil t)
      (when (equal (match-string 2) "http")
	(let ((url (concat (match-string 1)
			   (match-string 3)))
	      (desc (org-substring-no-properties (match-string 5))))
	  (push (concat "<DT><A HREF=\"" url "\">" desc "</A>\n") bookmarks))))
    (with-temp-buffer 
      (insert
       "<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>\n"
       "<HTML>\n"
       "<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"Content-Type\" CONTENT=\"text/html; charset=UTF-8\">\n"
       "<Title>Bookmarks</Title>\n"
       "<H1>Bookmarks</H1>\n"
       "<DT><H3 FOLDED>" file " (" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d") ")</H3>\n"
       "<DL><p>\n")
      (apply 'insert (nreverse bookmarks))
      (insert
       "</DL><p>\n"
       "</HTML>")
      (write-file (concat (file-name-sans-extension file) "-bookmarks.html"))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'll put it up in the "hacks" section on Worg.

Regards,

Matt
