Okay, tagging here I come. I went to del.icio.us and checked out the account created for the exercise, but darned if I could see any clouds! C'est la vie, I ploughed ahead and created my account anyway.
I use bookmarks all the time on my home PC and, being a librarian, I have very well organised lists of favourites that I access all the time. So, I can see that my del.icio.us account will be useful in enabling me to access all my favourites anywhere I am. Of course, since I am doing this exercise at work, I can't actually import my bookmarks right now - but I'm fairly confident I can work out how to do this later. Stay tuned for more on this - I'm sure you'll hear all about it if there's any trouble :-)
Okay, I'm back now and at home and about to try putting my bookmarks onto my del.icio.us account...
Actually, this was so simple there is absolutely nothing to write about! I use the Safari browser on my home PC and it was still super easy (which often is not the case if you use anything other than IE). I was quite surprised to see that I have 236 bookmarks, I would have guessed only about 20!!! This has actually been really fun and I've had the chance to revisit heaps of old bookmarks I forgot I even had - everything from Mealy Bugs to Build your own Castle Kits! My next project is to try to work out how to sort them and categorise them more effectively in del.icio.ous, so it is also nice to think that the learning will continue.
Happy now that this module worked really well and I will be able to access all my bookmarked websites from anywhere!
