From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
**"Social bookmarking** is a way for users to store, organize, share and search web pages. In a social bookmarking system, users save links to that they want to remember and/or share. These bookmarks are usually public, but depending on the service's features, may be saved privately, shared only with specific people or groups, shared only inside certain, or another combination of public and private. The allowed people can usually view these bookmarks chronologically, by category or tags, via a search engine, or even randomly."
