Having a web-based bookmarking system is convenient for accessing your bookmarks from any computer, whether you are at work or at home. Gone are the days of frustration over trying to remember sites you have used or which computer you saved the sites to. Currently, there are various online bookmarking sites available. These include:
1. http://delicious.com/
Delicious is easy to use and allows you to store your sites and add keywords or tags to them to organize them. It is easy to search for other sites with the same tags, so it can be used as a type of search engine also.
2. http://www.diigo.com/
Diigo is also easy to use. It has great features, such as sticky notes and highlighting. If you bookmark an article, you can pull it up and put sticky notes on it and highlight passages. It can also be shared, so a group could collaborate on it.
3. http://www.ikeepbookmarks.com/
This site was not as easy to use and kept giving me error messages. However, once you actually sign up, you do not have to install anything as you do with Delicious and Diigo. You can share and search within this site, so it has useful features.
4. https://www.google.com/bookmarks/
The Google bookmark site is not as diverse as the others. That is why I like to use it to bookmark sites I frequently use. Because you do not share it nor make it public, it is much simpler than the other sites, which are social bookmarking sites.
