Public Sticky notes
The social bookmarking market is in a steady state with two dominant players - del.icio.us and StumbleUpon. The rest of the pack, including Yahoo MyWeb, appears to be substantially behind. Will they catch up? In this post we attempt to answer that question.
We also take a look at how social bookmarking has evolved since del.icio.us. (even del.icio.us itself has evolved a lot!). We compare the features and approaches of the different companies, to see which has gained popularity and what has become the norm in this space.

I'm an avid user of social bookmarking. I’ve practically tried them all - these social bookmarking services pretty much have the same features. I am glad to see Diigo on your list. It really stands out and offers features like full-text search, highlight and annotation on the page, bookmarking-with-tagging quickly without waiting for an interface to load (big plus!) – serious information consumers will appreciate these power features.
Diiog also makes it very easy to integrate with other services. So it’s really the best one stop solution to allow you to simultaneously bookmark and continue to use whatever services you have been using, while taking advantage of its unique features.
There are a lot of nice resources out there, but very few tools I can't live without. Diigo is one that I can perform so many useful tasks in one convenient central location.

The current social web era started with del.icio.us and the advent of social bookmarking. The simple concept of a tag has turned our interactions with the web upside down. The idea of being able to store your bookmarks online, share them with everyone and see what others have bookmarked - triggered the sequence of events that resulted in today's rich and social web ecosystem.
We used the e-consultant and go2web20 lists of social bookmarking services to select the companies. Note that we did not include any company with an Alexa rank of less than 100,000. We also did not profile social news sites (like digg) or social shopping sites (like Kaboodle), as they will be profiled in separate R/WW posts.
