I used to have Delicious on my tablet but I never used it. I apparently did not realize its full potential. I thoroughly enjoyed exploring other people's tags at Delicious. I even found a site that I added to my rss! I like the idea of being able to explore other people's favorite sites but it is easy to get a little lost amongst all the different tags and lose track of what my original purpose for looking was.
I think tags are good for organizing sites and I love that Delicious enables me to access all of my sites from any computer- but doesn't my personalized start up page do that too? I can see myself using Delicious to keep my education sites sorted and accessible but I wonder- how many different tools are we supposed to use? I realize the point of this 23 things project is to broaden our technological experience, but I am starting to see a definite overlap in some of the tools. How do I decide which is best for me?

This is a great question! Maybe as we approach Thing 23, you will answer this question for yourself.
ReplyDeleteI hear where you are coming from, but so far, in my mind, only my Google Reader and Netvibes pages are similar. I suppose I could have all information on one, but I am actually using them differently. My Delicious page is strictly for those websites that I once bookmarked - these are not blogs or news feeds. At least this is how I am looking at these tools.
