For this week's Library 2.0 assignment focussing on social bookmarking and tagging, I chose the social bookmarking site del.icio.us. I had not used this resource before, -- only reading about it on listservs and in journal articles.
It took a bit of time for me to actually transfer the bookmarks from my browser at home, and upload them to del.icio.us (I had some problems with the instructions, until I realised that each browser type requires somewhat different steps in doing the transfer). Tagging the bookmarks is actually easily (I'm still creating "subject headings" for many of them).
All-in-all I would have to say del.icio.us is very useful. I can bring together bookmarks together from home and work, and have them all available in one single place.
