Thing 20- del.icio.us
My delicious user name is "milesgre". I can see this bookmarking being used in my teaching practice to share website with colleagues and students. The nice thing is I don't have to send a bunch of web addresses to a person when they ask where did you find that. I can direct them to my social bookmarking page and they can access whatever they need. I also won't have to call my wife to send me an email because I forgot to write the website down. I can also see this being beneficial to my students. I can bookmark valuable resources for them when we are doing research on topics or they can even share site they find with me. This saves both them and me time when doing research. Delicious definitely seems like a tool that can save me time and make me a more productive person. I've talked about how there isn't enough time in the day in previous blogs and this will save me time searching. You could spend hours on google and yahoo searching for information trying different keywords and subjects and getting tons of information. With delicious it cuts out the fluff and if you find people that are interested in the same things as you, your research time can be cut down drastically. These tools are too cool!!
