I've used Delicious before so for this assignment I looked up my log in and password information and started looking at this application again. I promised myself I would use this app during this class - problem all my computers are set up for Diigo from my tool bar, so every time I turn around I've add something new to my Diigo account instead. So first step, set myself up for Delicious, second step hide Diigo for this project. I do like the way Delicious let you see how many other people find the source useful. The comments that other people add can be very helpful for evaluating the websites.
Whether it’s Diigo or Delicious both save me time and headaches for organizing bookmarks so that I can have access from any computer. At school I use two different computers and may be on someone else’s computer to help them. At home I have three available to me. Online bookmaking is a stress reduction tool. Tagging is great for looking for sites that I haven’t used in a while or heard about and didn’t use right away. Without tagging I wouldn’t be able to find my online treasures as quickly.
Added note: After using Delicious for a few days I'm going back to Diigo, I like Diigo because I can add highlights to the web pages, the highlights show up in my bookmarks and on the webpage when I go back to view it. I'll use Delicious to look for and sort through websites but I'm sticking with Diigo for most of my use.
