del.icio.us

I was eager to read Ellyssa Kroski's article, The Hive Mind because just last week a co-worker was raving about her after meeting her at a conference. He has let me borrow her book "Web 2.0 for Librarians and Information Professionals" which is a great resource for those that are new to web 2.0.

First Impressions and Eventual Realizations

OK, so I have been tagging the odd article on del.icio.us
for this class as I have come across articles or websites that would be of
interest to the class. However, until I read the articles for this week, I
really didn’t know that the tagging we were doing to these links were actually
being used to help other users of del.icio.us search for things, too. So, by my
estimation, I am practicing the spirit of librarianship even when I’m sleeping!
I am so helpful.
