Other bookmarking sites that I’ve use:
Delicious is a great social bookmarking tool that allows you to tag and share your favorite Web sites with fellow Delicious users.
Symbaloo is a visual bookmarking system that is great for young children. The downside to this site is that it takes more time then the previously mentioned sites to add bookmarks.
