I now have a social bookmarking platform at http://del.ic.ious/joanmariewestern. This made me think of marking up or highlighting a book of insightful details that was interesting to my world in art, as well as, sharing research with my friends. This was not the case when adding del.icio.ous to my iGoogle platform and sending RSS feeds and bookmarking my research topic for my action research project. The information started flowing at a rapid pace. Anxiety, overwhelmed, and chaos pop into my art mind. I soon discovered that I could tag my newly found links for others to read and share. Oh, a new way of looking at research. I could go to my iGoogle tag my bookmarks and receive my friends and colleagues combined resources. What a wonderful new technique of research. This excited me and made me want to discover more about social bookmarking.
What I found was many blogs site discussing the top 100 social bookmarkings, I tryout a few social bookmarking sites beside delicious, and found that Stumble upon is not user friendly, magnolia social book marking crashed last week and most of users bookmarks were not recovered. I also tried Diigo, which I am still working with as an art educator and complying research for my art curriculum. Works for me! Diigo, has sticky note and I can collaborate with other colleagues. I can highlight important notations, and share my research findings with other art educator. Check it out! It is easy and fun to collaborate, tag and bookmark with friends at http://www.diigo.com.
