+# MSC2771: Message Bookmarks
+
+Matrix is currently lacking a feature to bookmark events as a user to provide a way of easy finding
+important messages without needing to know a search term. This proposal aims to provide browser or TODO list alike
+bookmarks.
+
+## What sets this apart from other Proposals that are similar (like Pinning and MSC2437)?
+
+For "Pinning" this might be obvious but pinning is something that all users in a room see. So if you pin a message 
+all users will see that pinned message at the top in riot. While this can be used as bookmarks it doesn't work in 
+rooms like #matrix:matrix.org where you might want to remember an event (for example a link to a guide) and others 
+might not need to remember this event. Therefore the usage of pinned events does not work very well.
+
+On the other side of similar MSCs is the MSC2437 which allows hashtag alike tagging of events. This allows to search 
+events by topics or displays them based on their topic. You might think that bookmarks would work with this (and they 
+might) but this Proposal wants to also cover the specifics of bookmarks and is more aimed to be alike browser bookmarks 
+and allows not only marking as bookmarks but also aims to give it some bookmark specific metadata.
+
+## Proposal
+
+Bookmarks are selected by a User on an Event. This means a user can select an event and add it to the bookmarks.
+The bookmark event inside of the account data is used for clients to keep track of bookmarked events.
+
+The bookmarks are saved with the type `m.bookmarks`.
+
+It is being saved inside of the rooms account data
+
+```json
+{
+  "events": [
+    {
+      "event_id": "$12345:example.com",
+      "title": "Food Choice",
+      "comment": "I need to buy stuff for this"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+## Alternatives
+
+Instead of using the room account data, it would be possible to save this in the global account data.
+This would be similar to `m.direct`.
+
+```json
+{
+  "!12345:example.com": [
+    {
+      "event_id": "$67890:example.com",
+      "title": "Wood Choice",
+      "comment": "I need to buy stuff for this"
+    }
+  ],
+  "!67890:example.com": [
+    {
+      "event_id": "$12345:example.com",
+      "title": "Food Choice",
+      "comment": "I need to buy stuff for this"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
