Delicious/Social Bookmarking

I really like Delicious bookmarking. I can already tell it will be very helpful for personal and educational purposes. It was so easy to sign-up! I can't believe I had never heard of sites like this before this class. Every time I think I am fairly caught up with all the new technology, there is always something new to learn! I had trouble downloading my buttons at home, (something about my toolbar) but the installation was extremely easy at school.

I was inspired by Cher's idea about making a school-wide bookmarking site. I always get so many emails about useful websites for school, but they are all lost in my email folders somewhere. I was thinking about it a lot today because I got a new teacher computer (which means my old teacher computer will be the students' new computer). I was frustrated because my Favorites won't be on my new computer. Then I remembered DELICIOUS...yay! Well, as I'm writing this Cher just told me her school-wide attempt to use Delicious didn't work, because her county didn't let her add the buttons. The buttons work at my school, though, so I'm going to give it a try. We'll see. Either way, I'm so excited about my new flat screen computer!!
