Social Bookmarking and Tagging

What is social bookmarking?? A social bookmarking website allows you to store and share bookmarks on the web, instead of inside your browser. This has many advantages: First, you can get to your bookmarks from anywhere, no matter whether you're at home, at work, in a library, or on a friend's computer. Second, you can share your bookmarks publicly or to any specific individuals. Third, you can find other people on your social bookmarking service who have interesting bookmarks and add their links to your own collection!

What is tagging? Tags are usually one word descriptors that you can assign to your bookmarks. They're a little bit like keywords but non-hierarchical. You can assign as many tags to a bookmark as you like and easily rename or delete them later.

CoReap extension is available for Firefox (2.0+, Windows/Linux/Mac) or Internet Explorer (IE 6+, Windows) only.

The real value of CoReap comes from the fact, that it provides you with highly relevant and community recommended bookmarks for your web search queries along with conventional search results.

Social Bookmarking Tools
Matt Biddulph in an XML.com article last year [2], in which he reviews one of the better known social bookmarking tools, del.icio.us [3], declares that the "del.icio.us-space has three major axes: users, tags, and URLs". We fully support that assessment but choose to present this deconstruction in a reverse order. This paper thus first recaps a brief history of bookmarks, then discusses the current interest in tagging, moves on to look at certain social issues, and finally considers some of the feature sets offered by the new bookmarking tools. A general review of a number of common social bookmarking tools is presented in the annex.

DOWNFLY works off e-mail addresses so don't worry about finding your friends: If they have e-mail, you can start sending and receiving links automatically.

Cool Site: TellFriends 

Recommend a local bar or restaurant

Tellfriends is a nicely designed site for social recommendations. You can recommend a favorite local bar or restaurant to the crowd. Other people can vote your recommendation up or down, and you get standing in the community when you make good recommendations. Sounds like Digg, no? Or maybe Yelp? It's a little of both, resulting in a social-bookmarking site that's focused on local advice. Nice idea, I suppose, but maintaining the site's focus on local content is going to take some work. Also, while the site does express a somewhat different idea from other services, it's sandwiched into an overcrowded space of recommendation engines and social-bookmarking sites, and it's not yet different enough to stand out.

Wordpress 2.0 Additions 

Automate Your Social Bookmarking and Tagging

Add Auto Social Poster to your Word Press Arsenal

- Automate bookmarking of your blog posts from hundreds or even thousands of blogs. No more tinkering with settings and doing your postings one by one. It's time to step up and become more automated like the "big boys".
- Add your new blog posts to an unlimited number of accounts. This is where you can blast traffic to your niche. Instead of just randomly dumping all of your URLS into an account like most other software, how about creating different bookmarking accounts that are used to post about different topics or niches. This is easy to set up with Auto Social Poster.
- Give the bookmarking sites and visitors exactly what they want - fresh quality content, not hundreds of spammy web pages links.
