Del.icio.us: Sounds Good

After exploring the del.icio.us web site and watching a few tutorials, I believe delicious is a great way for teachers, coaches, and students to find websites that can help them with everyday tasks. Delicious is a website where you can bookmark your favorite sites. Bookmarking on a website rather than your personal computer is valuable because you will be able to access the list from any computer. Tagging them is helpful in organizing which sites you are looking to visit and minimizes the amount of time it takes to find helpful sites. The coolest thing about delicious is that you can access other teachers, coaches, or students' bookmarked sites. This can be very helpful and time friendly. For example, instead of searching through hundreds or thousands of sites you can google, you can simply pull up a colleagues delicious, see which sites they have found helpful, and go from there. This process is much quicker and could eliminate pulling up a bunch of sites that are inaccurate.
