Del.icio.us Tagging

Follow, follow, follow, follow, follow the yellow-brick road of tags!

I enjoyed looking at the PLCMCL2 account as well as the Bremer's Horticulture pages. An excellent way to look at research done by others = time-saving (that's always a good thing). Then you can also build on what you find to suit yourself.

You can see the application for teachers and students or even groups of students for sharing information. And by using an RSS feed to keep you up to date on the latest additions to del.icio.us pages you won't miss out. And the good part of this is the accessability. So you can continue your research anywhere, anytime!

Found an interesting quote from Library Techtonics (off the PLCMCL2 pages) http://www.librarytechtonics.info/archives/2005/10/tagging_on_flic.html:
So, social bookmarking and tagging:
Are nifty, patron-centric ways of getting at what patrons really mean.
Create an easy-share, already built infrastructure on which to create a collaborative information-sharing environment.
Create an excellent way for patrons (and librarians) to add *supplemental* metadata to content and collections.
