Week 6 Activity #13

Del.icio.us... I was just going through the bookmarks on my computer and weeding them. Tagging would make it so much easier. My son just graduated from high school and at one of the graduation parties a mom (who always brings something so yummy to eat) said that she will pull recipes out of magazines and put them in a three-ring binder. Del.icio.us is an online three-ring binder. I have so much more research and work to do, but I am excited that I can organize my bookmarks with tags.

How cool would it be to have a tag with favorite books of elementary school librarians. Discovering fun new things to read to the students is the best part of my job, organizing them is not. Del.icio.us seems to be a great tool to help.

The Del.icio.us checkered box does not show up on my toolbar even though I followed the directions. I read the note in the Optional section of the activity, but I still could not figure it out. There is more work to be done here.....

I think del.icio.us has great potential as well. I also think that we learn SO much in this 23 Things that we will all need to go back and revisit them to really explore and see their full potential.
