DEL.ICIO.US

Online Tagging


When I first discovered the del.icio.us I was unsure how it would be more beneficial for organizing important websites than my bookmarks, but over the course of my blogging assignment, I discovered many important features that I didn't initially anticipate.

The first important benefit that Delicous was able to offer me was the network feature. Sometimes when I was reading my group members posts I was interested to learn more information on the topic that they had been discussing and it was convenient to log into my delicious account and find the source of their information within their tags. Websites such as MLB.comoften contained the exact article that they had been referencing and I was able to learn more in order to create a articulate counter blog in response to their arguments.

Additionally, two weeks ago the motherboard on my laptop had problems and and I have been unable to access my important websites. This is where del.icio.us has really come in handy. I have not lost any of my technological references that have helped me build my html posts! This difficult situation has translated into a wonderful learning experience and having an external database with all of my links will be a critical resource in the future!


I will certainly continue to use delicious in my daily life!
