Bookmarking

** Social Bookmarking ** [|What is Social Bookmarking? - video] I am so bummed out about this video. Let me know if you could see it. It just seemed to have disappeared.

__**Popular Sites**__
 * [|Diigo]
 * [|Del.icio.us]

**__Reasons to use__**?  Both Diigo and Del.icio.us are easy to ues after the toolbar is installed. They are still fairly easy to use without the toolbar but not as convenient. Both sites incorporate social bookmarking, but Diigo takes it a few steps further by allowing highlighting, annotating, sticky notes, and a whole social networking component through which you can create groups, find friends, and make contacts with which to share your resources. **__Delicious Bookmarks__** is the official Firefox add-on for Delicious, the world's leading social bookmarking service (//formerly del.icio.us//). It integrates your bookmarks and tags with Firefox and keeps them in sync for easy, convenient access. __**Diigo Bookmarks** __ 
 * Store all of your bookmarks in one place - not computer specific
 * Share bookmarks with others easily
 * Tag bookmarks with specific topics to create resource lists for classes, projects, units, lessons, etc.
 * __Ease of Use__**
 * Diigo highlights and sticky notes are persistent in the sense that whenever you return to the original web page, you will see your highlights and sticky notes superimposed on the original page, just what you would expect if you highlighted or wrote on a book!
 * Tags and lists are two different ways to organize information. Tags are best for diverse and disparate information, while lists are best for focused information.
 * Since all your bookmarks and annotations are stored in your Diigo account on the web, you can access them from any computer with web access. Your web pages are cached so they will always be available. You can search your collections not only by tags, but also by full-text, including highlights, sticky notes, and the full-text of the web pages.
