ABSTRACT
The ubiquitous nature of the Web has rendered a vast amount of information accessible on demand transforming itself to be the primary hub of personal and collective knowledge. Consequently it is becoming more challenging to manage such information effectively as we face the era of information overload, a.k.a. infobesity. The most popular way of managing web pages is bookmarking. Bookmarks, however, would serve little purpose if they cannot be easily organized or found for re-use. In this paper, we discuss the pros and cons of current folder and tag-based tools and highlight the role user context plays in information retrieval. Then we propose "MemoryLane", a bookmarking tool that offers context-specific tags to help organize and allows navigation of bookmarks by any context users remember.
