1. Social Bookmarking is a way to organize online pages, links, and other such information. It is an online program that can be used from anywhere and any computer. It is more useful than just adding a page as a favorite because of its ability to organize with tags. This gives you the ability to label sites using your own thought processes so that you remember where to find them.
2. Anyone can use social bookmarking. They can use it for personal use, but it can also be a tool that is useful when you need to share information with a group.
3. Social Bookmarking works when you download the program and then begin finding pages, sites, or links that you would like to remember or use again. You click on the button that you add after you download the program to add the link. When this is done it brings up a separate window in which you can add tags. Tags are special words that you will remember so that at a future time you can bring up the pages without having to look through 100 different pages.
4. It makes the process of finding pages less difficult because you can look through 5 pages with common links rather than 100 or 200.
5. Social bookmarking is catching on as a way for people to share information through a common place. It can be a way to find useful information in order to help with research.
6. It is useful for groups of teachers to share information, but can also be a good way for students and teachers to share information or assignments for benefit of their students.
7. There are not many negatives, but in business sometimes the extent of what you are advertising does not carry as far as you would imagine it to.
8. In comparison to traditional bookmarking, social bookmarking makes it easy to share your information. It also is a world easier to organize and find the information that you store.
9. Three Social Bookmarking Sites
Del.icio.us
Digg
Feedmarker
Out of these three I would say that I like del.icio.us the best. They all work well, I think that It is just easier to use because we have seen how it is used so it makes navigating the site easier.
