Sharing is always fun. Sharing updates,
pictures, videos, bookmarks and scholarly articles with friends and relatives
in the virtual world is possible in many ways. You can tag your Facebook friend
in your pictures and you can send links of your web albums or blogs to your
group of friends or you can share your favourites such as web pages,
communities and similar content available on the web with others by sending
them your Delicious or Digg community.
The process of sharing online resources
with others is called social bookmarking. It is a method for Internet users to organize, store, manage and search
for bookmarks of resources available online. There
are many sites which provide a variety of features for sharing.
Deli.cio.us, Digg, Tumblr and Stumble upon
are a few popular social bookmarking sites which allow users to save web
bookmarks and access them from any computer from anywhere. People who read articles on the Internet must have seen a sharing
option available below the articles in almost all popular sites. If you stumble
upon an interesting content on the Internet then you can share it with others
by just clicking the share button.
Pinterest is a site that allows online
users to organise and share with others things they find interesting on the web.Registered
users can browse pinboards made by others. Browsing pinboards is a fun way to
discover new things and be inspired by people who share your interests. For
example: some interior designer from Australia loves to design houses in a
particular fashion and she has saved several resources such as pictures, videos
and text to get help for her work. You can get help from the same resources.
Flicker and Picasa are among a few photo-sharing
websites where users can share their pictures without sending them as
attachments. They just need to make an album on the site and send a URL
(Universal Resource Locator) link to a group of people whom they want to send.
Similarly, users can send videos through video-sharing websites like YouTube
and metacafe.
