The YouTube video "Social Bookmarking in Plain English" was great! This is my first time going to the Delicious site. On the Del.icio.us home page hotlist, I found this site:
http://lifehacker.com/395368/best-online-language-tools-for-word-nerds
Very interesting links to all manner of word info. One site I liked is
Visuwords™ an online graphical dictionary —"Look up words to find their meanings and associations with other words and concepts. Produce diagrams reminiscent of a neural net. Learn how words associate." Neat clusters!! http://www.visuwords.com/
Another one of interest is LearnItLists
The description said "Learn a language ten words at a time"... this interested me. I went to the site http://www.learnitlists.com/ and here's more info: "What is Learnit? A tool for learners which helps your brain store new words quickly. Learnit helps you: Learn words quickly. Say them right. Know the most important words. Test what you know"
I plan to return here to try it out when I have more time.
I explored pbcls on Del.icio.us... quite an assortment of tags. I like the tag clouds! The user notes and related tags are helpful to expand one's search for info.
I can see how this site could be useful for research and especially for easy bookmarking; not having to be on one particular computer to access your list of favorites is quite a plus.
Finally, I created a Del.icio.us account, installed the toolbar buttons (and took the button tutorial... Who would've thought there was a "button" tutorial?!), and bookmarked 2 sites complete with tags. Yippee! It was a "Del.icio.us" experience...(Groan).
