DESCRIPTION
Owlink.in is a bookmarking tool that lets you find your bookmarks by googling for them. You discover relevant bookmarks you might have forgotten about when you search for anything on Google. You can also create groups for friends and colleagues on Owlink and discover each others bookmarks while searching for common topics on Google and save on research time. Owlink's features: 1. Bookmark pages with simple comments and hashtags - organise with hashtags and not multiple folders 2. Bookmark PDF's, which are indexed by us and thus are searchable on Google. 3. Share your bookmarks with groups that you create/are part of 4. Find your bookmarks and the group bookmarks with Google search (relevant bookmarks appear on the Google search page itself along with other Google results as usual) www.owlink.in Facebook: http://facebook.com/owlinkbookmarks Twitter: http://twitter.com/owlinkin Email : contact [at] owlink [dot] inTRANSCRIPT
