Social Bookmarking is a very interesting concept in this ever changing world we live in.  It allows us to bookmark sites to one website and to always have those sites there.  This is very convenient because as we change computers we can allow for our bookmarks and favorite sites to follow with us.  Bookmarks normally stay on the computer you create them on and do not travel with you.  

But is this really helpful.  I am not sure.  I feel like it is just another cluttered website that really has no purpose.  We are finding people based on what websites they visit.  How much does this really tell us about the person.  With sites like this I feel like it would be more productive to find a way to carry our bookmarks everywhere from computer to computer rather than have a website like a Facebook for bookmarking.
