# Blasta - The agreeable and cordial civic annotation system.
Blasta is a collaborative bookmarks manager for organizing online content. It
allows you to add links to your personal collection of links, to categorize them
with keywords, and to share your collection not only among your own software,
devices and machines, but also with others.
Blasta is a collaborative bookmarks manager for organizing online content.
What makes Blasta a collaborative system is its ability to display to you the
links that other people have collected, as well as showing you who else has
bookmarked a specific link. You can also view the links collected by others, and
subscribe to the links of people whose lists you deem to be interesting.

## Technicalities
Blasta is a federated bookmarking system which is based on XMPP and stores
bookmarks on your own XMPP account; to achieve this task, Blasta utilizes the
following XMPP specifications:
- [XEP-0163: Personal Eventing Protocol](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0163.html)
- [XEP-0060: Publish-Subscribe](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html)
* [XEP-0163: Personal Eventing Protocol](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0163.html)
* [XEP-0060: Publish-Subscribe](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html)
Blasta operates as an XMPP client, and therefore, does not have a bookmarks
system nor an account system, of its own.
