About folkd.com
folkd.com is a community powered social webservice that has the goal to "enrich your web-surfing experience"."Yeah! I searched my whole life for that thing - err... once again... what does it do???"
The idea is to aggregate recommendations, tags (keywords), comments or just "more information" which exists within knowledge of the people (the folks!) and connect it to particular webpages or topics. Meaning that you and other folkd users will get this additional knowledge while surfing to discover the web faster and find things you'd probably have missed otherwise.
"OK - and how does it work?"
We recommend to use the folkd browser extension: The sidebar directly displays related content and interaction like the "folk it" button to push a site's reputation (rank). You can also keep track of your or your friends' folkd pages within the sidebar. To improve the search for a certain item, add a description or tags (keywords) by clicking the "save it" button.
"Nice - but what are my personal benefits?"
Basically, you can save any webpage with just one click, add tags to organize your bookmarks and find interesting sites (already bookmarked ones or just hot and upcoming pages) a lot faster.

"How do i get further information on the different items or the sidebar?"
