Web Tools I actually use: del.icio.us

Delicious - (http://del.icio.us) - don't use a "www"

Del.icio.us is a web page that lets you save your bookmarks on the web.

So, you use it, and you no longer have to worry about your bookmarks being on your home computer or work computer (or lab computer), you log into the website, and they are all there.

When you add an entry, you can also "tag" it, to add a useful search term to it. So I tag all my library stuff "library" and all my frugal stuff "money".

But remember, it's on the web, so you can share with others. When you do enter (post) a bookmark, it shows you how many other people have also added it to their account.

If my user name is "queequeg83", which it is, and you want to look at what I have tagged as "library", you can go to http://del.icio.us/queequeg83/library.

So, if you are teaching an English 102 class, you could tag things "eng102" and tell your students (or put into your blackboard pages) to go to http://del.icio.us/yourlogin/eng102 and they will see the links that you want them to see. And if a link gets old, you can remove it, and the students won't see it next time they visit the site, and if you add a new thing, it will show up.

And, going beyond what I have done, you can identify friends who are using delicious and send them links.
