Is social bookmarking the same as blogging?

Question

Could someone please explain what social bookmarking is? How is it similar to and different from blogging and a wiki?

Answer 1

Social bookmarking is a way to share interesting links with others.  Sites like Digg, StumbleUpon, and Delicious allow you to vote for links; other users can often see which links you voted for.

Blogging is a much broader concept.  In basic terms, a weblog (blog) entry is most often a diary or news update, depending on whether it's a personal or professional site.  Sites like Blogger and WordPress allow for the easy creation of blogs.

A wiki is a site where all users can actively edit the content of a webpage.

How are they different?  See above.
