Favourites and bookmarks help please?

Question

I have had to wipe my computer in the past due to a problem, which is all fine now. The really annoying thing was that I lost all of my favourites!

Are bookmarks better, and would I have lost them in the same circumstance?

I thought they be better because all my internet stuff like web page mailbox, etc stayed the same and the bookmarks module is on my page.

How do bookmarks work, are they better than favourites?

I know that doesn't sound very technical, but that's the reason i'm asking-i'm not all technical!

Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

Bookmarks and Favorites are basically the same thing. They are just differently named by different browsers. Like IE call them Favorites and Netscape call them Bookmarks and so on.
