Can your organization benefit from social bookmarking tools?
Social Bookmarking

One of the greatest challenges facing people who use large information spaces is to remember and retrieve items that they have previously found and thought to be interesting. One approach to this problem is to allow individuals to save particular search strings to re-create the search in the future. Another approach has been to allow people to create personal collections of material—for example, the use of electronic citation bundles (called binders) in the ACM Digital Library. Collections of citations can be created manually by readers or through execution of (and alerting to) a saved search.

"The apparent success of Internet-based social bookmarking applications begs
the question of whether large enterprises or organizations would also benefit
from social bookmarking systems. To investigate this question, at IBM we
are designing and developing an enterprise-scale social bookmarking system
called dogear. The rest of this article describes the design challenges and
early lessons learned from a friendly trial of the technology."
