Thing 10 - Social bookmarks

In the true spirit (I'm guessing) of Web 2.0 I spent some time wafting around Delicious Tagland, looking for the bookmarks of people I have never met. Sarah Washford, you have also bookmarked the SWIMS catalogue and I like your technology bookmarks so I have become one of your 'fans'. I've also selected a couple of your other fans for my network. I could spend a lo-o-ong time doing this, lest I miss the secret of the Universe. Yes I purchased a 1-year licence for the cartoon. Fun, huh?

Thing 9 - As delicious as Sunday tea?

I set up a delicious account a few months ago, and then abandoned it because it wouldn't let me arrange my bookmarks into folders. And I hate feral bookmarks. Now, thanks to the good people at 23 Things Oxford Programme, I finally understand the point of tagging. This is better than folderising (?word), because one bookmark can have more than one tag. And it's easy to list the bookmarks that have been given a particular tag. And I can view the 'public' bookmarks of other people who share the same tag words. Fiendish. This is almost as good as my Sunday tea.
