Week 6- Thing 13 Del.icio.us

I like the idea of having my bookmarks on any computer I use. I don't have a lot of sites that regularly want to visit, but for the few that I do this will be a good option for me. I am wondering if in my class I can encourage my students to use this to share with each other good sites for math tutoring. I am sure they would find plenty of other sites to share as well, but I could at least offer my profile for them to see what sites I have found. Although, I will likely have to make a separate profile for work vs home as I try to keep my personal life separate. I don't mind that my students know I play video games, but I would rather not have them find my bookmarks to the maps and guides. I did enjoy seeing the comments people were making about the bookmarked sites. When I am doing another research project this will be very useful. I also think this is something that my colleague next door would find helpful to use with her students. She teaches history and often I see her students in the lab finding new information and going projects. It seems to me that they could use this tool to consolidate efforts on finding good accurate information.
