The main focus was to ease the arrangement of bookmarks and an auto-complete-like search through saved bookmarks. In addition to the auto-completion there will be the possibility to rank each page by their relevance to the user.

'''Problems'''
===Problems===
'' In analysing problems you should concentrate on things that are bad for the users right now and perceived as a problematic thing by them. It is not a problem that users think they have if they don't care about bookmarking. Its a problem of the people who designed the current thing that is not used though. A problem from that area would be that they want save things but are frustrated because they don't know how. But I don't know if the interviews revealed that, so don't write it if you don't have it as result. '' --[[User:JanD|JanD]] 14:48, 3 December 2010 (CET)
