# 17 Delicious... social bookmarking

I had registered with Delicious about 12 months ago while at a course with other teacher librarians. It was a good way to share websites. However I had lost momentum using it. It would be a great place to add some of the web resources I have discovered doing this course. The best application I can think of for the classroom would to be as a recommended resources list for students taking a specific research task. This would be most suitable to secondary students and would also encourage them to use their school email accounts that they tend to forget. Adding other people to my network is a simple process and would broaden the web resources offered. Adding the add-ons to the toolbar will make it easier to add websites as I find them. I am motivated to utilize this tool.

  1. This sounds like a great way to use the resource! So many students rely on Google for answers I think it's really important to show them the wealth of resources out there.
    Well done!
