Social bookmarking

“Social bookmarking is saving Web site links to a publicsite and tagging them with keywords. It differs frommaking bookmarks because bookmarks are onlyavailable on the computer you are using. To do social

bookmarking, you register with a social bookmarkingsite, which lets you store your favorite sites, and addtags, or subjects, of your choice to the sites you’ve bookmarked. Visitors to social bookmarking sites cansearch for sites that others have linked to by keyword,

person who added the site, or popularity. Socialbookmarking is a great way to collect a set ofresources and share them with others.”
