Just in case you missed it... the Web has changed. Today people’s opinions matter especially what they tag and share on social bookmarking sites.

Social Bookmarking Phenomenon
One of the networking methodologies that have evolved from Internet architecture is the phenomenon of "social bookmarking." It's the same concept as bookmarking favorites with your browser, but the collection of favorites has a coding system and is shared with others. In social bookmarking you build a library of URLs that reflect your interests and that you consider worth visiting. You add a personal "tag" with a keyword that characterizes the site.

Social Bookmarking Sites
Some of the popular social bookmarking sites out there include Backflip, Blinklist, blogmarks, Connotea, de.lirio.us, feedmarker, Jots,  Lookmarks, Scuttle, Spurl, Simpy, del.icio.us. They all have an assortment of tricks and widgets that make their sites a little different. Some of them have fairly sophisticated search methods for their subscribed users; some allow you to "bundle" tags for search purposes; most provide lists of the most popular bookmarks and the recent posts. Social Bookmarking in fact embodies web 2.0 where like minded individuals share links and end up creating traffic and opinions about your site. Social Bookmarking sites have an intrinsic advantage over search engines and other bots — people choose what to bookmark rather than relying on a program to categorize and qualify content. There is an implied quality in something that someone has taken the time to select.
