Social bookmarking

Another account and password to remember!

The process of registering with
del.icio.us was straightforward and easy to navigate.

I added a few different types of sites to test this out. It was interesting to see how many other people had the sites bookmarked.


I checked a few of these to see if there were other sites within this tag which would be of interest to me. User notes were also interesting.

The concept of having access to your favorite sites and being able to add tags is great. It would be particularly useful if your work involved travel so that you could log into your sites from anywhere around the world.

I think this would be a useful educational and research tool (like on the Youtube video clip) as people connected together for example in some research could use this tool to collaborate and share their knowledge. I know of one speaker/presenter who uses this site to access their favourites.
I would use this site if I was travelling for an extended period and have all my favourites in one place.
