Tagging & Social Bookmarking with Delicious
This was a neat "thing" to learn about. I had never heard of Delicious, but thought it was a great idea for bookmarking websites and could see how helpful the social aspect of this would be for teachers. When I signed up for my Delicious account I linked it with my Facebook for an easier login and it automatically brought up sites relating to science when I searched "educational technology." It was neat that Delicious was able to retrieve my "interests" from facebook and apply them in the search results for websites that also coincided with educational technology.
I can see how this would be a great way for teachers to keep track of educational websites, but I think this site would be more beneficial for teachers to use to plan and enhance their lessons rather than for use with students in the classroom. It is a great source for teachers to find new ideas and lessons from others, as well as fun sites to enhance lessons with students.
