Social Bookmarking (Collaborating with others)

You've heard of social networking before right? We've all heard its not what you know, but who you know before. What if this applied to teaching; that its not how much knowledge and resources we have in our own head, but rather how much collective knowledge and resources that we have access to.

Welcome to social bookmarking

My two favorite social bookmarking sites
Del.icio.us Lets checkout my delicious account


Furl

Now we are going to create a del.icio.us account as a group, trust me its easy. (You will want to create an account as most of the useful tools of delicious and furl aren't available until you've created an account and started to bookmark some pages.)
(10 mins)

Some Other Useful Tools
Ben Bishop's Introduction to delicious
Del.icio.us plug in for firefox
Del.icio.us plug in for Internet Explorer
Absolutely Delicious (Tons of other del.icio.us plug ins)
