I had a quick look at del-ic-ious and I'm very interested in opening an account (I think that we may do that later on in this course. I love the fact that I can bookmark all the sites that I am interested in and keep them all in some sort of order. I think the fact that they can be tagged would make it much easier to re-find something later on. A possible downfall is that I can't relocate the site I want later, but in order to discover whether that is actually the case, I will have to open an account and try it out.
I would find this very useful in the library as there are so many different items that I try and save just in case I need them for something and there just doesn't seem to be any way to organize them. This web 2.0 tool could help me get organized!
I also had a quick look at Lulu the book site and even though I wouldn't necessarily use it at school (because of the cost), I would love to use it personally - to publish books that I make for the grandparents - or to publish books that I write for my son about his family. I love this and can't wait to try it!

Social bookmarking is an incredibly powerful tool. I have been exploring Diigo, which is a social bookmarking tool that also allows you to highlight and leave stickies on a web page. There are some things I like better about Delicious but that feature of Diigo is really powerful.
