Every have a website you love and added to your favorites in your internet browser? What happens when you are not using your computer at home and want to visit that link? You cannot! Having your favorites or bookmarks on just one computer is just not practical anymore with the different computers you can use at work and at home. Google provides a bookmarks service that allows you to save your bookmarks online and access them wherever you are, no matter what computer you are using.
Google provides its bookmark service at: http://www.google.com/bookmarks
You will need a Google Account. Once you log in you will see the following screen:
To add bookmarks to your Google account, simply follow the directions above and drag the icon to links area. You can then click on the words "Google Bookmark" and it will automatically add the page you are viewing to your Google Bookmarks online. You will get the chance to add keywords, or tags to your website to make it easier to find later.
There are other websites that allow you to save bookmarks online but if you are already using Google for all your other information it may be easier for you to store your bookmarks here also. Bookmarks on Google are for your personal use only. There is currently no way to share pages you bookmark.
If you have bookmarks already saved to your personal browser, you do not have to save them again to add them to Google Bookmarks! You can import them. More information can be found here.
