Views Bookmark
The Views Bookmark module is a flexible bookmark system that is completely customizable the administrator. Using this module, the site administrator can provide any number of "bookmarks" or flags for nodes. With extensive views integration, you can create custom lists of popular content or keep tabs on important content.
A bookmark is really just a flag that is set on a node, to mark it. Bookmarks may be per-user, meaning that each user can mark a node individually or not, or global, meaning that the node is either marked or it is not marked, and any user who changes that changes it for everyone.
In this way, additional flags (similar to published and sticky) can be put on nodes and dealt with by the system however the administration likes.
This module is being replaced by Flag.
Feature list:
- Create unlimited arbitrary "bookmarks" or flags to mark content
- Extensive Views integration to make lists of popular flagged content
- Full support for Tokens in all messages and labels
- JavaScript based toggling of bookmarks
- Limit bookmark display by content type and roles
- Optionally show each bookmark as a checkbox on the node form
Each bookmark provides data to the Views module, and provides a default view to list 'my bookmarks'. The default views are basic, but are easily tailored to whatever the system administrator would like them to do.
The module will come installed with a simple bookmark and a sample view for 'my bookmarks'.

Upgrading to Flag
The Views Bookmark module is deprecated! If building a new site, try the Flag module instead, which provides all the same functionality, but the module has a better name (and a few other things). The final version of Flag will be released before the end of Summer 2008.
Views Bookmark will NOT be upgraded to Drupal 6. Flag module provides a full upgrade path for all of your data from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6, including any Views you have configured using Views Bookmark.
