OK, so were back to tagging again. I feel like we have already covered this before, but this thing does include some new points to this topic. To start with, tagging is a feature on many sites that allow users to label things with whatever keywords they choose. You can use this to help categorize and organize things. You can even do it in these blogs, as I have done on this one.
Del.icio.us is something new entirely, and something that seems very interesting and helpful to me as a student. Its considered to be a "Social Bookmarking" site. This means you can create an account and bookmark all your favorite sites to the website, which you can later access on any computer. You can also add your own tags to help organize all your bookmarks. Then, you can create a network with others and share thier bookmarks thus creating an online community or social network. I will find this tool to be very useful in school. Often I am working on multiple computers and do not have a place to store my bookmarks. With del.icio.us, I now have a way to remember what sites I find when I am not on my home computer.
