Del.icio.us

I have added a bookmark to Del.icio.us today and quite like browsing through the bookmarks. Libraries maybe able to use this took to improve website search on behalf of patrons. While searching the web with key words provides access, a auxillory search useing Del.icio.us may uncover a wider range of websites and therefore enhance the web browsing staff undertake on behalf of their patrons. This website has features I have yet to fully exploit, however it quickly turns up websites which are new and often following the most popular links directs you to very interesting sites. Sharing bookmarks for websites is a very common activity and this takes the sharing out to a much wider scale allowing people unknown and divided by the tyrany of distance to share common and useful resources.
