One of the biggest trends happens to be social bookmarking or the public online collection of personal website bookmarks. This can be witnessed by the growing use of bookmarking tools like the ever popular del.icio.us, which recently received a nice injection of funding from a star-studded group of investors.
To learn more about the origins and future of social bookmarking, we urge you to visit D-Lib Magazine, a journal of digital library research and development produced by the Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI). There's a 2-part series with PART 1 focusing on a general overview and PART 2 being a case study done on Connotea, a free online reference management and social bookmarking service for scientists .
