With millions of websites on the World Wide Web, it is a daunting task to try and remember their names or addresses. Few famous websites like Google.com or TopBits.com are easily remembered, but smaller and rarely used websites tend to slip of our mind. Hence, all major browsers provide a feature called Bookmarking. Bookmarking is an activity of creating bookmarks within the web browser. A bookmark is essentially a stored link address that, when clicked, will take you to the destination web page.
