According to Wikipedia, social bookmarking is defined as:
“Social bookmarking is an activity performed over a computer network that
allows users to save and categorize a personal collection of bookmarks and
share them with others.
Users may also take bookmarks saved by others and add them
to their own collection, as well as to subscribe to the lists of others - a
personal knowledge management tool.”
Actually, the idea was first launched back in 1996 as
‘itlist’. Other similar sites quickly followed but that all went belly-up with
the dot-com bubble bust in 2001. The idea is new again now with the advent of
Web 2.0 and this time around it is thriving.
