Lead Instructor: Dana Levesque  [|Social Bookmarking]**: ** We have all bookmarked sites on our computer at work and when we get home we want to look at the site but can't remember the site name and our bookmarks are not available because they are on the computer at work. What if you could access your bookmarks from any computer? Social bookmarking takes this idea and goes much further. [|del.icio.us] (pronounced "delicious") is a social bookmarking site for storing, sharing, and discovering __web__ bookmarks. The site has several million members and uses tagging where users can label each of their bookmarks freely chosen keywords. The most powerful feature of del.icio.us and similar sites is the social network.
