Thing #14 Technorati

I created a Technorati account and added the bookmarklet to my browser's toolbar, so that whenever I see a blog I want to keep up with, I can easily add it to my Technorati Favorites. I posted a few favourite blogs, including several of my colleagues from the ATOLearning Online list. I viewed the online video linked from the 'Learning 23 things' discovery resources which discusses the new and upgraded version of Technorati and I particularly like the search feature which separates results by using different tabs.

Thing #13 Tagging, folksomonies & social bookmarking in Del.icio.us

I created a del.icio.us account and inserted bookmarklets on my web brower's bookmarks bar. This is a very handy feature when you are on the go - whether working at different library sites or even when travelling. I find the haphazard and jumbled look of tags on websites to be a bit distracting........but I am now seeing little del.icio.us logos everywhere I search on the internet.
