Because I see the same kind of fun filled days of glory in the articles from the 1980s. Where did that come from?! Actually no.

I definitely have a tendency to do a lot of browser bookmarking so this was a good way to keep track of all my bookmarks. What I find really compelling about del.icio.us is the community really, I have several people in my network that consistently find interesting things to tag and in that way there is an unspoken conversation going on, which is kind of neat.

The few times I have used it were when I was specifically looking something up for my group. Other than that, I prefer the old fashioned way. However, like Andrea said, it is nice if you're switching computers often. And the fact that you can easily share those bookmarks with others is kind of nice and it prevents your inbox from clogging up with 20 new emails about sites your group members found. It's just not my favorite tool (meaning: I should probably try to remember it exists and actually give it a shot.) And I'm sorry about your iPod. That's devastating.

I understand why it's potentially a great tool, but as a person who pretty much never switches computers, I don't personally find it as useful as I can see it being. For example, I've introduced my parents to it, since they frequently switch computers they find it much more useful. Austin, I agree with both of you about del.icio.us.

I am catching up on a week's worth of posts now (having been without my computer since Monday while it was being repaired). I hope you had a wonderful birthday. Happy belated birthday.

Happy Birthday. Second - I take a bit more of a positive stand on the class - I don't blame the people that know more about computers for my lack of knowledge, I just feel overwhelmed and pray that someone in my group can explain it to me later. So try to be more positive and i guess more reliant on one's teammates... thats my suggestion to you. You didn’t give us much time to wish you a belated birthday - what like 10 hours between posts?

Welcome to the now my insurance will go down at twenty-five and I have to grow up generation. (actually it only gets better with age!)

(Just kidding, happy belated!) ps - the "moment of zen" from your last post is still freaking me out.
