Social Bookmarking

Also for class I have been learning a lot about social bookmarking. One year ago, I would have had no idea what the heck that meant! Currently, I actually have my own account and have first hand knowledge of using one. The class I am in now is the third technology class in a row that had discussed this topic. The one I became a member with was delicious. Check out http://del.icio.us/ for all the details about how to set one up. The short definition is that through using this service, you can be on any computer anywhere in the world with Internet access and reach the sites you have saved for yourself for later access. You can also add to your list from anywhere. This becomes handy for those that don't like to lug your computer everywhere you go so you have all your own files. If you have not yet used it, I recommend at least finding out more about it. You would be surprised how handy it can be. We even did a mock up of a staff development plan for getting our whole distrcit on board using this technology. Email me if you are interested in seeing what we did and I would be happy to share it!
