#8 (Week 4) Tagging and Del.icio.us

This social bookmarking service would be great for organising study topics for students. Its portability makes it so much more versatile than the old method of using Favourites. I had a go with saving web sites with free crossstitch patterns. By tagging with the individual subjects I will be able to come back when I have the time and choose to look at the individual topics rather than having to go back into each webpage or wait until I'm on my home computer to search my Favourites. When I put in the topic tramping I came up with a lot of NZ sites as hiking is the preferred term overseas. With tagging I can put both on any site I save and this makes it more accessible to others.
