We already know that Wordpress has a membership function.
What I need is something that expands that function and allows user to create profiles with a little more info, and be able to save or bookmark posts from the blog, within their profile.

So for instance, user comes and logs in, and sees a post that they like and ca save it to their profile to quick access the next time they log in.

Anyone know of a feature like this?

You might want to look at BuddyPress (http://buddypress.org/). If you haven't seen it before it's a set of plugins to essentially build a social network on top of WordPress. Members do get their own profile pages. I'm not sure how bookmarking pages would work, but I would thing something similar is there.

There is one catch. Currently it only works with WordPressMU and not WordPress. That will be changing in the not too distant future. The cores of WP and MU are merging and I think once WP 3.0 arrives they'll basically be the same thing and BuddyPress will work on WP alone.

BuddyPress is probably what you're looking for.
