N2 - Search is not the only activity in information space users are engaged in. Most of time users rediscover things they used to find in the past, and often they just browse without any specific purpose discovering information space around them or with a particular purpose, such as learning miscellaneous information. We propose an approach for designing exploratory information space that makes use of human-centered power of bookmarking for information selection. The information space is built as a result of a search for something a user intends to discover, and serves as a place for rediscoveries of personal findings, socialization and exploration inside discovery chains of other participants of the proposed prototype system. The most important elements of the proposed information space, main elements of the prototype system to be implemented and used to explore the space, and use scenarios are discussed here.
