thing 12

I like the whole concept of tagging and keeping things available for easier retrieval. One of the things that I must keep reminding myself is to keep the tags useful and specific. If I tag everything Chemistry, I really won't get any help when I am looking for one specific website.

The one disadvantage to this social bookmarking will be in the colleagues that also work with it. They can add tags also and if they don't have the same or a similar tagging system as I do, than it will quickly become a rather useless. I won't be able to access any of their work and will continually keep using only my work because of the different tagging. While I like the concept of sharing with my colleagues, I also like to have a constant system to be able to separate the different types of topics on the website.

  1. Again - add multiple tags to your items so that you can access the same item many ways. Maybe this is an opportunity to work as a department and create a department delicious account.....??!!
