If you don’t have the Yahoo! Toolbar installed, you can add pages to your Yahoo! Bookmarks using the bookmarklet tool. All you have to do is add the tool to your browser, and then use the tool to add pages while you browse the Web.

This tool is useful when you’re on someone else’s computer and you don’t want to install the Yahoo! Toolbar. Just remember that you can add pages using the bookmarklet tool, and you have to visit the Yahoo! Bookmarks web site to open the pages.
