Delicious Thing #23

Delicious www.del.icio.us did not work very well. I thought it would be important because there were many scheduling conflicts with the Mac lab. Students frequently went between the Mac lab and the PC lab Wellstone has upstairs, which do not share networks or communicate in any way. And some students have Internet at home and work there.

Delicious on Macs is quite easy because when a user registers they can drag and drop Delicious buttons to the bookmark bar. These can capture the address and add any site the user is looking at, as a bookmark to their Delicious account in one click.

The Windows & Internet Explorer implementation in the PC lab is too old to do anything that sophisticated without run a program installation that requires an administrator password.

I would be curious to know if there are other better sites.

Terry,

I have been using backflip.com to store mobile web addresses and so far it has went well. I am not sure how it is the same or different than delicious site but you may want to try it out with the students. For what it is worth -
