Tagging, Del.icio.us....who thinks of these things?? I think this is absolutely fabulous. Del.icio.us is definitely going to be something that I will use post-L2.0. My bookmarks/favorites (which are different on the three or four PCs I have regular access to) are a bit jumbled. To the point where Google is a favorite of mine because I'm always having to try and find sites that I once visited at one stage of another.
The big long list of favorites that I do have (half of which I don't even use anymore) I do try really really hard to keep in some kind of order in folders, etc. But tags are cool! Just off the top of my head I've added 16 pages that I visit regularly. All have the tag 'daily' and a lot of them have the tag 'learning2.0'. I haven't even started putting in the WoW, Pokemon and gardening pages that I like.
The resources for this week are worth commenting on. Us.ef.ul I found to be decidedly not so. A big lot of text is something that I don't want to see when I trying to learn and have fun and take it all in. I skimmed my way though it and managed to pick up a few things. Might be more helpful once I have got myself sorted out. The Several Habits of Wildly Successful del.icio.us Users was a lot more helpful and easier to take on board. But 5 stars go to the youtube video on Social Bookmarking in Plain English. Very clear, Very clever. I was impressed by the pointing and the moving papers and the fact that it all made sense. Fantastic!
My only downer would be that I got excited by the tags and got a bit carried away. I also wasn't very consistent. So I ended up with a lot of tags, some of them only relevent to 1 site. I tried to delete some of my tags in an attempt to streamline and organise myself. I had some trouble with that because I clicked delete and choose a tag from the drop down menu and...it didn't seem to do anything. i also then couldn't continue and choose another tag to delete from the drop down menu. Not sure if that makes sence but try and keep your tags simple and uniform.
