Week 6: Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati

#13 Tagging, Folksonomies & social bookmarking in del.icio.us
Simply put, del.icio.us is delicious! I love this tool. I have already started organising all of my learning 2.0 links, tagging them as a tool, directory or an image generator and so on. This tagging then gives me the means to retrieve different favourites as I need them. (I'm in Heaven!!)

As a Casual Librarian, the key feature for me is the accessibility of this tool, as I will be able to access my del.icio.us favourites wherever I work. However, another important feature of del.icio.us is its networking capability. By sharing tags and other user's comments it becomes a terrific facilitator in the sharing of information and knowledge. For example, whilst perusing the PLCMC learning 2.0 material I spotted a few items I thought were worth saving in my own favourites list in anticipation of task 15.
