How to use the Save to Facebook extension to bookmark web links on Facebook

After a link or webpage is bookmarked you can open it letter on any of the devices if your bookmarks are cloud-synced with other web browsers if you are using any of the popular web browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or any other.
