del.icio.us

I enjoyed watching the Otter tutorial video, but I didn't read the us.ef.ul article (dated 2004!). I found some good tips from skimming the habits list: bookmark it all, add tons of tags, watch what others post.

From visiting delicious (it's really just one word now?), I found two articles that I wanted to read on the currently popular list. And, just now, looking again I found a tag that I wanted to follow. I can see how instead of searching the entire Web for a specific phrase, that it will also be beneficial to browse related tags to find relevant (and tested) information.

I have an old account from 2007 when I wanted to make sure that my bookmarks were backed up and I could access them from multiple computers. But, I haven't kept up with it.

This re-introduction has inspired me to try again with a new criteria. Currently, I wade through browser history or duplicate Web searches to find sites again, only bookmarking something that I visit on a daily or weekly basis. Now, I'm going tag them all!
