Module 7

For this module I chose to use the Social Bookmarking tool Delicious. I found it very easy to use and I also installed the extension to my Chrome task bar. It has made bookmarking websites very easy. I also like the 'tagging' feature - this will make finding my favourite teaching websites a lot faster when I need them for specific topics.

I can definitely see the usefulness of online communities such as Delicious and Diigo. It makes finding interesting and relevant websites so much quicker as you can quickly see what other people have bookmarked and found useful. It's also a great way to share fantastic resources with friends, family and colleagues. The fact that you can access the bookmarks from any computer is also another huge time saver.

During this module I also took the opportunity to look at a few other blogs and also commented on a couple. I found it very interesting to read other peoples thoughts and opinions about the Web 2.0 tools that we have looked at so far.
