Another site, Connotea, is geared to scientists. Launched in 2004 as a result of seeing the possibilities that del.icio.us provided for the general public, Connotea helps scientific communities manage and share their references (Ben Lund, Tony Hammond, Martin Flack, and Timo Hannay, “Social Bookmarking Tools (II): A Case Study,” D-Lib Magazine, April 2005).

There are disadvantages to social bookmarking. Although the organization of social bookmarking is flat with no folder fuss, the tools are still evolving and not all are user-friendly. Also, people create the tags. As a result, they create a level of meaning and context not found in current search engines (Wikipedia on Social Bookmarking). However, no consistent standards and management exist for tags, which can create confusion and result in wasted time.
