Delicious: It has simplified my life
Dear Folks,
I'm constantly on the lookout for useful educational content and technology tools on the Web. My major criteria is that the Web site has to be effective, interesting, and makes what I do simpler and easier. I often find sites that are promising but make doing things harder. I don't really care how stunningly beautiful a site might appear. If life becomes a little more difficult, requiring me to jump through more hoops, then I pass on the site.
I obviously run into more Web sites than I can possible process in the small amount of time I have available. Sites that I don't want to forget, have access to outside of my home computer, or that I want to take a second look at go into my http://www.delicious.com account.I've grown to love Delicious.
Recently, while in San Juan, Puerto Rico for my son's wedding, I was able to access Delicious on my laptop. I was able to quickly revisit sites to continue working with the information on them and to add new bookmarks that I found while researching. I was able to do this from whatever location I was in that had WiFi.
What a time saver to not have to Google a specific topic and wade through unnecessary returned hits or to prod my preoccupied brain into trying to remember the URL.
If you haven't discovered the benefits of Delicious yet, I suggest that you open an account. It free, and it is simple. You'll be happy to add this Web 2.0 tool to your arsenal of tech tools.
Yours,
Lee
