2005-07-25: "Bookmarks" and "favorites" are two words for
the same thing: web addresses that users have asked the
web browser to remember for convenient access in the future.
Microsoft Internet Explorer uses the term "favorite." Most other products,
including the very first web browsers and the modern Firefox browser,
use the term "bookmark." In Microsoft Internet Explorer, you can add a
favorite by visiting the page you want the browser to remember, pulling down
the "Favorites" menu and selecting "Add to Favorites." In Firefox, you
can do the same thing by pulling down the "Bookmarks" menu and
selecting "Bookmark This Page."
