Online communities are not a new thing. Sharing of bookmarks however, is. I never imagined how popular this tool would be. It adds another dimension and links quite well into the content in Module 8.
I signed up for Delicio.us by linking my Twitter account. It automatically found other people I was following on Twitter and ensured I was following their links as well. It also added any links I have tweeted in the past. I began uploading all of my bookmarks and I can now clear my bookmark bar and just have the one. I found that the majority of the bookmarks that I have are technology or education websites.
Probably the best feature of this technology is that it can be accessed from anywhere simply by logging in. This would solve my problem of forgetting a website I love to use when talking to other teachers. I could also use different computers when planning and teaching. I look forward to adding to this concept and following some other peoples links.
