Week 6:Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati

Went to Del.icio.us, a social networking favourites site. It looks quite a useful research tool for teachers but I did not open an account because it requires the downloading of a toolbar. It gives you an option other than a straight search engine and the use of tags allows you to narrow your search. I don't think I'll be using it.

The information about Creative Commons and Copyright, while interesting, is more relevant to Teacher/Librarians.

I found this week's tutorial not as useful as previous - but I am looking forward to next week and an introduction to Wikis.
