===Why are current systems unable to solve this problem?=== | |||
They are unable to solve this problem because they are not as practicable and efficient as they should/could be.

Therefore we tried to assume and combine all known systems and automate advanced functions as much as possible. | The most important thing of our plannings was that we wanted not to implemet any new standards, because these can easily become confusing.

A bookmark consists of a screenshot of the page, its title, URL, favicon, current date and the relevance to the user - rated by the user. The clou is, most data will automatically be added. Last visit, visits and frequency of use will be updated over time. | |||

Our prototype has been tested by about 10 people - our class and circle of acquaintances. We provided them a limited prototype created with PHP, SQL and jQuery. So they were able to use the protoype straightforward. Furthermore each tester has been introduced briefly to the prototype. | |||
