Why does Google want your bookmarks?

Published Jan. 11, 2010 by Vitaly Babiy

Google chrome is a great and fast browser that has many cool features, bookmark syncing is one of them. This feature syncs your bookmarks to all your computers that use chrome. Also to Google's severs giving them the ability to promote your bookmark results within your Google searches using SearchWiki . This makes complete sense since if you bookmarked the page that you thought was important. This feature alone makes bookmarking useful again.

Here is an image of the results:

Here I have bookmarked djangos homepage in chrome, now when I search for django the first result is my bookmark.
