I am a huge fan of social bookmarking. I have used several different
sites. I started with Deli.cio.us, then Diigo and finally Google
bookmarks. Diigo is such a great interface. I like the way it looks the
way it merges with my browser. It is a tool that is easy to use with
students. You can easily comment on students’ references and they can
comment on each others findings.
I have to note another
evolution of my use of this type of tool. I use Evernote now for …well,
everything! I love this tool and how it gathers and organizes my ideas
and findings. I have yet to use it with students. However,
I see the “share” aspect of it as a valuable application, that could replace bookmarking sites for me.
I think I have an Evernote app, but I haven't used it yet. Is it a social bookmarking tool, or is it more involved?
ReplyDeleteI was going to check out Diigo since you mentioned the comment features, but I don't want to keep using new tools for the same thing, so should I skip Diigo and go right to Evernote?
I have heard great things about Evernote, but have not explored it myself. You have peaked my interest.
