Delicious indeed!

Where has Delicious been all my life? I am refusing to use its silly little dots, only its proper name. It is fantastic! It is a bit like the Unitechnology site that was set up by English teachers years ago for model lesson plans and links to supporting material, but the scope is just HUGE as often a bookmark "belongs" in more than one folder, and putting sites into folders restricts them, whereas tagging ensures they are always available, not only on your computer but wherever you go. Interesting discussion about LibraryThing too - I really like LibraryThing, and Bookcat is very similar - the full programme costs about fifty dollars and you scan the ISBN of a book and it races off to Amazon or several other sites, depending on your preferences, and downloads the whole record of a book, with review and cover picture. Awesome and so easy to use. Interesting too to read of Encore, Innovative Interface's new product, which presumably can be integrated into Millennium? One to keep an eye on. From this day on, my whole social (bookmarking) life is going to be Delicious. And that's a promise.
