Windows Live Favorites: Compare

By Elsa Wenzel on 03/10/2006

More Microsoft reviews , RRP: Free

The good:

  • Windows Live Favorites imports bookmarks from Firefox and Internet Explorer
  • Organises pages by tags and folders
  • Works with Windows Live Toolbar
  • Saves up to 2MB of content; previews bookmarked pages
  • Integrates with Windows Live Spaces and Messenger

The bad:

  • Lacks bookmark-sharing features that Del.icio.us has
  • Doesn't detect broken links or merge similar tags
  • Toolbar is for IE only

The bottomline:

Windows Live Favorites lets you save, import, and arrange bookmarks in subject folders, then view saved links without leaving the page -- but it doesn't hook you up with other users' favourite URLs the way Del.icio.us does.
