Why? Collect bookmarks and more - Licorize begins as a bookmarking tool, providing a non-intrusive “add bookmark with one click” functionality. It is integrated in browsers, with plugins, extensions and bookmarklets, provides readability features, multi tagging, site thumbnails and more as evolution of bookmarking. But Licorize shows its shining power once one gets back to the list of what has been bookmarked. One collects bookmarks and contents with a good reason: bookmarks are collected with a specific motivation in mind, like researching an idea, putting together a project, collecting the references for one of your passions. And often collections are put together and maintained by several people, working as a team. Transform and curate - Beyond bookmarks, Licorize provides built-in types to classify information, which have specific behavior and are hence more refined than simple tags.

Licorize booklets allow you just that. The process of editing the collected contents and presenting them on the web is called "curation"; Licorize can be a great curation tool.
