Category 1: Social Book Marking I took a look at both Delicious & Diigo. Diigo was tough...seemed like there were many more features but I just couldn't spend the time trying to figure out how it worked. Delicious was much more intuitive. Loved its easy of use and the fact that it had pinterest clones. I would like to use it with my students...have them set up accounts and collect their research. I would like to create a new stack of links for them to access...one stop shopping but not sure how to give them access.
Category 2: Curation LOVE LOVE LOVE Pinterest....but it only aides in my procrastination!! I loved the very visual nature of it...a great tool for organizing/planning/designing just about anything! I did not create my own but have turned into quite the Pinterest Stalker.... I am looking for ways people have incorporated these tools into their libraries/classrooms.
Category 3: Content Aggregators I have not jumped on the iPad or iPhone bandwagon....I like my old school cell phone....but I did check out Scoop.it. I find myself going back to it....I love the quick view...very much like browsing a magazine. Again...time is an issue. I can't see putting one together myself but I was interested in what everyone else had up there....Now is the time for Libraries
