Social Bookmarking – the buzz is around, what is it(WST) anyway?
Social bookmarking is a netizen’s method to share, organize, search and manage bookmarks of web resources. Unlike file sharing, the resources themselves aren’t shared, merely bookmarks that reference them, just like an Index page of a book where all the content of the book is referenced.
In a social bookmarking system, users save links to web pages that they want to remember and/or share. These bookmarks are usually public, and can be saved privately, shared only with specified people or groups, shared only inside certain networks, or another combination of public and private domains. The allowed people can usually view these bookmarks chronologically, by category or tags, or via a search engine.
Eye-catching social bookmarking icons are an added advantage for a website. The more attractive the icons the more probability of website visitors clicking on them gets increased helping everybody to promote and bookmark your content.
