Since in reading the description contained within the assignment readings and exploring the sites, I considered that there is inherent value in having "portable bookmarks" and explored that option through iGoogle. I found Google Bookmarks, and a Social Bookmark Widget with links to MySpace, facebook, YouTube, and a number of other sites including Del.icio.us. I also subscribed to the feed from Del.icio.us through the Social Bookmark Widget. I have it readily available on my newly designed home page to explore and add to as I wish. No matter where I am, signing into my Google account will provide access, and I may soon wonder how I ever lived without it.
I enjoy reading the comments of others and have participated in forum-type discussions. The comments here are interesting and seem to represent a wide variety of perspectives; the tags appear to be a personal organization for the person who created it. In the classroom, using keywords from academic content provides boundless opportunities for having relevant material at the fingertips.
Coincidentally, my first feed from Del.icio.us includes a link to the Mindjet blog...Getting Things Done With Mind Maps.
