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.
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/folders 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
