del.icio.us!

I have spent time going through my favourite websites and book marking them in del.icio.us. This has enabled me to store and access bookmarks from any computer and to share them with colleagues. Also opened up other possibilities by browsing other library users' tags, the ones tagged by Bibliothèques de l'Université Paris-Sorbonne (Paris-IV) for instance listed some useful sites, not all were French. This application can be utilised as a reference tool, as has been demonstrated by public libraries; it facilitates collaboration and research can be shared. I explored the tags, the comments were useful, and where there are lots of tags the concept of 'tag clouds' takes shape. One could go on discovering ad infinitum ..... better get back to work now.
