Del.icio.us

I started my own Del.icio.us account. I have already found a multitude of uses for this sort of organizational tool. Not only are my bookmarks now available to me virtually, but I can also quickly find numerous links to sites of interest to me on particular topics. Because we are not allowed to download to our work computers, I was unable to install the bookmark bar. I am still able to add the bookmarks as I find useful sites, though. I just have to take a longer route to do it.

I can also see how I can find authoratative information as well as "well reviewed" information by searching for tags from other individuals. That is something very new to me.

I am also interested in the concept of building lists and working on projects with other individuals through the use of specialized tags. I can already think of several ways that our staff can use that feature.

Doubtlessly I will find many other possibilities when I begin to use this service more and more.
