From My Favourites to Delicious - Reflections on Module 7

I have what I imagine must be a Web 1 bookmark service connected to my Yahoo account. It is Favourites anywhere or some such thing and I used it regularly when I first organised it. As with a basic function of Delicious it enabled me to access my favourites from any computer. More recently I have used the function less regularly, not necessarily because I am ready for Web 2 but because I often have my laptop with me when I want a bookmark. I joined Delicious earlier in the year along with colleagues and have to assume given the fact I don't recall that user name means I didn't use the features. Having just watched and read about the features available through Delicious I know I am nowhere near using it to its full potential. However, I will organise myself to use Delicious much more frequently and usefully. I imagine it could all become to confusing if it wasn't managed so I will have to reread the more advanced information to ensure I am using Delicious rather than it using me. I am lucky enough to have located a Delicious account, though perhaps at this stage they wouldn't be able to say the same thing about mine http://www.delicious.com/Learning_Support . I have a long way to go and as the user informed me it is all in the tagging.

  1. I wonder who that user is? I believe that delicious is easy and user friendly. However like anything in life (including desks and bedrooms) it is important to be well organised and tidy. With delicious that means keeping on top of the tagging! Good luck with your explorations of delicious.
