Put a picture/thumbnail of a website when the bookmark is posted, rather than the poster's picture
The Diigo page would look a lot better if the bookmarks that are posted have a small picture/image/thumbnail to the left of the link, rather than the profile picture of the person who posted it. It gets repetitive/redundant to see that person's picture/image over and over again. Instead, having a small image of what you're about to see on the website/bookmark gives you a sense of what you'll see if you decide to click on it. It is much more informative and useful and adds diversity to the look of the page.

Edmodo does this really well. Alternatively, a thumbnail option as with FB where it picks up images from the website and allows you to choose a representative thumbnail or none.Ideally all three options as not all webpages are visually-compelling as thumbnails.

Having a thumbnail of the bookmarked site can be a lifesaver. User experience wise.... having an avatar there isn't as meaningful as putting a website bookmarked thumbnail. I hope your developer team is really considering this in their discussions.

I'm referring to bookmarks on group pages, by the way.
