Some browsers do not have bookmarks or favorites.  Those that don't have any bookmarking capabilities are usually very simple browsers, usually made for a specific purpose other than for browsing the World Wide Web.  Way before Graphic User Interfaces (GUIs) came along, the Internet and the World Wide Web portion was accessible from text based browsers.  Many of those browsers are still in use today, some for nostalgic reasons, some because the computer/operating system only supports the browser, and some because the browser offers advantages over the more modern browsers.  For example, Lynx is a text only based browser.  Lynx has been around for quite some time, but why would anyone want to use a text based browser?  You get to skip all the fancy graphics and get to the text of the matter.  Also, by not supporting many modern browser features, several security holes are eliminated.  For some fun times, try a Lynx browser and see how your favorite websites do.  Then you may understand why AllAboutOmaha.com is not made to be so fancy with lots of graphics to make up the interface.
