There is a need for innovation on this subject. Ideas must be explored to find new solutions and approaches.
Current bookmark managers waste our time and information.
5.3 billion internet users need ways to save and organize web-related information, but the tools available to them have been stagnant since 1993, when the Mosaic Browser—the ancestor of Chrome and Mozilla—was first released. Current bookmark managers offer the same features as the original public internet browser.
Saving a web page of interest requires pressing a save button, selecting a destination folder, tagging or describing the page, and most importantly, making sure to give it a recognizable title, or else it may be difficult to find among hundreds or thousands of bookmarks. We often save a page to read later, but can't find it in our bookmark library due to a lack of tags or descriptions. In the worst case, we forget to save the page as a bookmark, and lose track of the information. But there is an even bigger problem: the immense amount of valuable information users miss out on due to lack of time while browsing the web. Research takes a lot of time and requires users to rapidly filter through vast amounts of information on each page. We often find valuable information during a search, but must abandon it to progress with the original task, leading to frustration. On top of this, current bookmark managers fail to evolve and keep up, creating a sense of insecurity about not being able to find information read or seen on the internet. This is why a new product is needed, not for managing bookmarks, but for managing web information.
