Descriptions may be added to these bookmarks in the form of metadata, so users may understand the content of the resource without first needing to download it for themselves. Such descriptions may be free text comments, votes in favour of or against its quality, or tags that collectively or collaboratively become a folksonomy. Folksonomy is also called social tagging, "the process by which many users add metadata in the form of keywords to shared content".

Yes The above definition and explanation to social bookmarking is ideal. Also important to note that social bookmarking is an ideal SEO option for building quality links and increasing traffic to site.
