Tired of importing your existing bookmarks from one browser to another? Tired of syncing of all your bookmarks in one place?
Here is the solution : Social Bookmarking.
No more Bookmarks > Bookmark this page or Favorites > Add Favorite.
Today you can access your bookmarks from anywhere in the world and from any browser.
You can also share your bookmarks with friends, and see their bookmarks.
Some popular social bookmarking sites are del.icio.us, technorati, furl, digg, slashdot, etc.
If you are new to social bookmarking, I suggest you start with delicious. Go to the delicious homepage, create an account for yourself. Install the "TAG" and "del.icio.us" buttons on to your browser once you create your account. You are now ready to save bookmarks using delicious and share them with the world. Whenever you want to bookmark a certain page, hit the "TAG" button and then save the page on delicious. This bookmark is for you and the world to see. You also get a URL for yourself such as http://del.icio.us/[username]. Pass this URL to others. Once you save a page, you can also see the list of other users who have bookmarked the same page.
Social bookmarking enables you to:
- Share your bookmarks
- Access today's hot topics
- Access your friend's favorites
- Determine if your site is popular
- Browse your favorites from anywhere in the world
