Thing #17

Social bookmarking is a great tool. For anyone doing any kind of research it will be very helpful. I think for me del.icio.us was best. It seemed easier for me to use. They all had their good points but I liked del.icio.us. After a while of going back and forth looking at the three bookmarking sites (del.icio.us, furl & magnolia) I was starting to get cross-eyed and confused. I think for something like this to be useful you need to pick one social bookmarking site and stick to it.
I am going to use this sight for my students to explore areas that they are researching. I think this will be a great tool for libraries and computer labs in our schools.
