# 17 Delicious

Well not only have I been able to set up a Delicious account but have managed to test it on 4 different computers as I've been travelling this week. I love that you can access bookmarks from any computer (no more having to email my husband sites he needs). I have also managed to link Delicious to my igoogle page which I am chuffed about and makes bookmarking very quick and easy. I also like the privacy aspect where you can share sites or keep them for yourself. (I would definitely set it up like this for classroom use). I used Delicious years ago when it was De.lic.ious. We had a teaching network who would all bookmark great sites. I loved it, but as I haven't been teaching for a few years sort of forgot about it. One thing that did frustrate me was when not all the sites bookmarked were that great, you still had to sift through them. However, setting up my own account eliminates that a bit. I can see that in the classroom, by bookmarking relevant topics for research it would reduce time spent trawling irrelevant sites. The only down side I can see is if people bookmark too many sites that you don't find helpful and you don't have much control over what is bookmarked. Yes, I'll be using Delicious in the future and hopefully hubby will be too.
