1. Take a look around Del.icio.us using the PLCMCL2 account that was created for the original program exercise at the Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County. Note: In this account you will find lots of resources that have been highlighted or used throughout the course of the Learning 2.0 program.
I find Del.icio.us cumbersome. I found the tags to be old. They were still referring to MySpace, which is passé. I don’t like the look of it. We have Del.icio. us tag on the children’s website for MCPL and I find that they are very confusing for patrons. I feel that it is because of how they look. Especially to children, the tags are hard to read.
2. Explore the site options and try clicking on a bookmark that has also been bookmarked by a lot of other users. Can you see the comments they added about this bookmark or the tags that they used to categorize this reference?
Did this still most are out of date or two years old.
3. Create a blog post about your experience and thoughts about this tool. Can you see the potential of this tool for research assistance? Or just as an easy way to create bookmarks that can be accessed from anywhere
I don’t like Del.icio.us but we use it here at MCPL
