del.icio.us

Ok, so I didn't do so well on this weeks projects because they all seem confusing to me. It took me a little while just to write out the word "delicious" with all those periods in it. Anyway, I think I got the gist of it thanks to the "Social Bookmarking in Plain English" video. I wish they would teach all this technology in that manner. I tried clicking on different bookmarks and noticed some tags that people used but not too many notes. I do see how del.icio.us could be helpful as a research tool in libraries as it allows you to narrow down topics quckly and undoubtedly saves time in the long run. The faster the information gets to the patron, the happier they will be. As for myself, I think I will stick to the old style bookmarking because I personally do not visit too many different sites...
