Thing 17

I honestly have never even used the bookmarking tool before exploring the social bookmarking options. I always just type the same thing in the search bar and hope that I will be able to find it again! This is a fun easy to use tool to organize frequently used (or even great not so frequently used websites). It was so easy to use and in the last 10 minutes I have bookmarked 3 of the websites I found to be helpful in this class so far. I really enjoy the fact that there is a search engine in the actually bookmarking site to pull up helpful information. I believe this tool would be great for students to use in the elementary setting. The teacher could post helpful resources and bookmark them students, you could even get more descriptive to narrow the results down. This is also a great way for teachers to share useful websites. There are millions of websites out there and most of us simply do not have the time to conduct open ended searches every time we need to find a resource. I believe this resource will help me as a student as well as a teacher. Knowing what other people are saying about the website is also a helpful tool when deciding what to bookmark.
