#13 Del.icio.us (A spoonful of sugar)

I've been using del.icio.us for a while now; mainly as a way of transferring my bookmarks from work to home and vice versa.


In a work context it could be very useful for bookmarking sites such as 20 favourite crime authors, or authors who write like Maeve Binchy.

I see it being used as a sort of list generator (in a way) where instead of having a printed list of Maeve Binchy read-a-likes the del.icio.us version would be dynamic, more up-to-date (updateable), and much cheaper to produce.

If we have a guest speaker or author event we could bookmark relevant and related sites on del.icio.us (author's homepage, websites on the topic, all sorts of things).

Since exploring with the PLCMCL2 account I've been somewhat sidetracked by the Nancy Pearl action figure pool party from Flickr (not strictly relevant, but fun all the same!)
