Thing #13

Wow is all I can say about the social bookmarking.  I was telling my husband that I am so glad I am taking this course because it is making me realize how much is out there that is useful.  I really am ancient in my ways of just bookmarking websites and having no way to organizing them.
Delicious is cool and very easy to use.  I am progressing through the process of a research project for my Masters degree.  The use of Delicious and Diigo will make such a difference in my research.  I can't wait to begin using both of these.
Granted, I only spent a short amount of time exploring these sites.  I love the highlighting and sticky notes of Diigo.  My graduate classes are all online so I am continually reading articles on my laptop.  Just today, I was talking with someone about how to highlight on our laptops.  This is great because I can do the annotations and organize at the same time.  Incredible!

  1. I did not put in my original post about how I love how teachers can use the bookmarking sites to collaborate and share the workload.

  2. Diigo is my favorite also. When I have Diigo open and search a web page if the comments from someone else are public you can see those too. That was a nice surprise for me.
