Thing 13 ~ Del.icio.us & Diigo

I chose Diigo. Ultimately, it seemed as though more was possible in Diigo. It also seemed that many Del.icio.us users switched once they were comfortable with social bookmarking and tagging. I felt increasingly more confident as I read through the articles that were linked to the Thing 13 blog.

At school, once we get comfortable and efficient with social bookmarking, I think we will wonder how we ever survived without it! We will be able to more effectively collaborate with one another, share freely, store information, and be mobile. We will be able to communicate with one another as well as with students and their families.

I hope social bookmarking revolutionizes how we approach research projects and papers. Good-bye, "hot lists" stored in the school computer's "Student Folders." Hello, ways of engaging the 21st century student!

PS: You can find me on diigo as kdinfinities.

  1. I hope so too -- goodbye to those hotlists that are only useful from school!
