Book+Marking

=Stop Adding to "My Favorites" and Join Social Bookmarking!=

If you don't know about [|Delicious], you must. You know how annoying it is when you have a great website that you've bookmarked at home, but you can't find it when you're at school because you don't have it bookmarked on your computer yet? Delicious allows you keep your collection of favorite websites, but access them from any computer. The other great thing about it is you can network with other people and look up their favorite websites. The bookmarked websites are tagged, allowing them to be searchable. They also give you a place to write a short description about the websites and why people think they're so great. So, open your own [|Delicious] account. It's free. And once you do, join my network! Click on "People" and then "Go to a User" to see my bookmarks, or "Join a Network" to see the new websites I find. You'll need to enter in my user name "tedrum". Use Delicious and you'll never lose a website!

Here's a quick educational video from our favorite quick educational video producers, Common Craft. They explain [|Delicious] and social bookmarking in plain English. media type="custom" key="2945933"
