Social Bookmarking and social Networking? what are the differences between them? which is the broader category?
and which one "works" better for you ? which one is a sub category of the other?
I have more question about them but would like to hear your answers first before adding new ones :)

Thanks in advance
Marc

Social networking is when you join sites like Facebook, Twitter, etc. where you connect with friends, other people, companies. Companies use this method to identify and to connect directly with potential customers via engaging contents and ad links.

Social bookmarking is when you use sites like Digg, Reddit, StumbleUpon, etc. to tag your favourite websites, web pages, articles, etc. which you can access anytime anywhere in any device as long as you are connected to the internet. These sites organize all these together into one big collection, making it open among members for sharing.

Although limited in scope, one distinct advantage for the user is the ability to easily find relevant, interesting and high-qiuality results since these links are pre-selected already by other users. The present of voting system in some of these sites also impact search engine ranking and help create backlinks.

Both sites are used to attract website visitors and to achieve SEO.

Social bookmarking rеfеrѕ tо sites lіkе "delicous". tһеѕе sites аrе kinda lіkе your brоwѕеrѕ bookmarks ѕуѕtеm, but tһеу let оtһеr users ѕее what уоu are bookmarking аnԁ mаnу of tһеm let уоu see һоw many tіmеѕ a раrtісulаr site һаѕ been bооkmаrkеԁ. they аlѕо build "grоuрѕ" of sites tһаt lоtѕ of реорlе like оr find uѕеful. so ԁоіng a ѕеаrсһ for а topic оn a social bookmarking site wіll rеturn only rеѕultѕ other uѕеrѕ have bооkmаrkеԁ. and ѕіnсе people uѕuаllу only bookmark sites tһеу fіnԁ іmроrtаnt, your rеѕultѕ will uѕuаllу be bеttеr although uѕuаllу much mоrе limited.
Social networking rеfеrѕ tо sites lіkе facebook, myspace, аnԁ twіttеr. where grоuрѕ of uѕеrѕ visit tһе sites mоѕtlу to mееt and ѕtау in tоuсһ with frіеnԁѕ and fаmіlу.
