Exploration 8: Social Bookmarking Sites

I just set up my own Delicious account and am looking forward to using it. So far I have bookmarked the great law sites that I learned about at the Mayland Law Library session of GSM. I'm also bookmarking any great readers advisory sites I find as that is always a challenge.
Another set of bookmarks I am going to add are the ones I've listed on my "Find Your Job" Pathfinder Packet that I created for my LATI project and I'll add any others that I come across.
As an APT I travel between libraries and it will be wonderful to access these websites from wherever I am!
I also find the sites that each branch has included on their branch Delicious accounts very helpful as many are specific to the area and the questions eacg branch often gets.
I find Delicious to be extremely helpful, both for individuals and for branches in that favorite websites can be accessed from any computer.
I am just practicing with tagging and trying to discover how tags can be used to identify other pertinant websites!
