Social
Bookmarking
Social bookmarking is a method
for Internet users to share, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web
resources. Unlike file sharing, the resources themselves aren't shared,
merely bookmarks that reference them.
Descriptions may be added to these bookmarks in the form of metadata, so
that other users may understand the content of the resource without first
needing to download it for themselves. Such descriptions may be free text
comments, votes in favor of or against its quality, or tags that
collectively become a folksonomy. Folksonomy is also called social tagging,
"the process by which many users add metadata in the form of keywords to
shared content".
In a social bookmarking system, users save links to web pages that they want
to remember 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.
Most social bookmark services encourage users to organize their bookmarks
with informal tags instead of the traditional browser-based system of
folders, although some services feature categories or a combination of
folders and tags.
They also enable viewing bookmarks associated with a chosen tag, and include
information about the number of users who have bookmarked them. Some social
bookmarking services also draw inferences from the relationship of tags to
create clusters of tags or bookmarks.
Many social bookmarking services provide web feeds for their lists of
bookmarks, including lists organized by tags. This allows subscribers to
become aware of new bookmarks as they are saved, shared, and tagged by other
users.
As these services have matured and grown more popular, they have added extra
features such as ratings and comments on bookmarks, the ability to import
and export bookmarks from browsers, emailing of bookmarks, web annotation,
and groups or other social network features.
