Bookmark Management and Sharing with del.icio.us

- An Efficient Bookmark Manipulation System

By: Catalin Bocanu, Web News Editor

Social bookmarking services are offered by many websites and you can also deploy your own by using server side specific application. These services allow you to manage your bookmarks online with various purposes.

For example, you can store your favourite links pointing to articles, news sites and any other Internet resource types. By sharing the bookmarks over the Internet, you will gain many advantages, one of them being the mobility in bookmark accessing and management, because they become available from any computer having installed a web browser.

del.icio.us is a social bookmarking service that provides many features in bookmark organizing process. The registration process is easy, you just have to provide a valid email address and then you will be able to post bookmars immediately. This service is accessible from any popular web browser, like Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and more.

During the registration process two browser buttons will be installed, which will help you add and access your bookmarks with ease. Bookmarks (favorites) can be organized using tags, which are descriptive keywords with non-hierarchical purpose. In this way the bookmark management becomes more flexible as compared with the situation when you arrange them in folders in a hierarchical way.

From your account Settings page the tags can be edited, deleted or regrouped as bundles. You are also allowed to import (upload) your existing Favorites bookmarks or to backup the actual online bookmarks by exporting them. By activating the subscription system, you will automatically see all the new bookmarks added by other users with a tag that concerns you.

If you own a website your latest added bookmarks can be displayed into your web pages using Javascript or RSS codes that are automatically generated by the del.icio.us bookmarking service. In conclusion, this full featured bookmarking service will help you improve and extend your research and collaboration activities due to the efficient web resource management and sharing.
