Week 7: del.icio.us & Library Thing

I found setting up a an account with del.icio.us was easy enough to do. It really helped having the notes that were prepared by Sharon Morris to follow though. I can see that it would be a concept the library could really make use of. I had a look at other libraries that had made use of them and they had created a whole range of subject headings that the public could easily access which linked them to great sites. Having the tags and been able to arrange them into groups is great.




I found Library Thing to be an easy to use tool for keeping all your books listed as a catalogue. It is also interesting to see how many book related groups are available as well as information on your particular book you may have listed.
