Whether it is a political, social, scientific or entertainment issue, XBEL has captured the attention of individuals of all ages and backgrounds. With a rich and varied history, XBEL remains a point of discussion and debate today. In this article, we will explore the different aspects of XBEL and its impact on modern society, as well as the implications it has for the future.

The XML Bookmark Exchange Language (XBEL), is an open XML standard for sharing Internet URIs, also known as bookmarks (or favorites in Internet Explorer).

An example of XBEL use is the XBELicious application, which stores Del.icio.us bookmarks in XBEL format. The Galeon, Konqueror, Arora and Midori web browsers use XBEL as the format for storing user bookmarks. The Floccus synchronization client can store XBEL on WebDAV servers. The SiteBar bookmark server can import and export bookmarks in XBEL format.

XBEL was created by the Python XML Special Interest Group "to create an interesting, fun project which was both useful and would demonstrate the Python XML processing software which was being developed at the time".

It is also used by Nautilus and gedit of the GNOME desktop environment.
