How to use Firefox as Social Bookmarking Expert. (5 service reworked)

Recently I am seeing this trend growing faster on internet that people are now using Social Bookmarks for their favourite links :
They are actually portable personal place, you can access them from anywhere, from any computer as they are stored on computer for you, also you can make them public or private, which means if you like a page and you bookmarked it then chances are that other people will also see that page and if they too like then will add it in their bookmarks.

Tagging : Tags are basically single words assign to categorize the contents, which means a poem may be tagged as "urdu, hindi, shayari, poetry" ie. it can be part of any of the four given tags. Almost all the 5 services I am describing here will use tags.

Here I am sharing my views that how can you can use your FireFox at its best to manage your bookmarks on them.

Though, there are many social bookmarking sites for that but I am mentioning few ie. 5 of them.

1. Digg.com
2. Furl.net
3. del.icio.us
4. Google Bookmarks
5. Technorati

So start with digg,
I am using FireFox Browser which makes things so easy.
You can get firefox from http://www.getfirefox.com

But before doing all, they ask you to register, so you can register with same username - password on all or any you want. I have account on all of them.

HOW TO ADD IN DIGG
---------------------------------
First create account at Digg.com and then after login in goto :
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1477/ (for firefox user) and install that extension or add-on.
After that you will find "Digg it" under Tools in firefox.
See following :

Now clicking Digg this will lead to following page :
