Thing #17

Again, never heard of this, but actually really like it and found it very helpful and useful! I have a bad habit of bookmarking all kinds of sites...whether I'm shopping for something and want to come back to it later or doing research for a paper. Del.icio.us is a good way to keep all of these kinds of things organized. So, I think it is useful for personal reasons as well as searching for curriculum when I am a teacher. I really like that you can tag each bookmark so you can easily access it later when you are looking for it. And I like that you can see what other people have bookmarked and have found useful. If I'm wanting to find useful sites on teaching certain topics, not only can I do my own search but I can also see sites that other teachers have tagged for the same purpose. My bookmarks definitely become messy and with this application, I can get them organized. Plus, since my fiance and I both use this computer, his bookmarks get mixed up with mine. So, using Del.icio.us, we can keep them separate.
