Delicious

=**Using Delicious to build on my Personal Learning Network**= Notes for a workshop for SD46 staff. Thanks to Mark Wagner - mark@edtechlife.com for some good ideas I got from reading his social networking wiki.

Agenda
Welcome and introduction to Using Delicious to build on my Personal Learning Network
 * When you find an interesting website, how do you currently store the URL (web address) to get back to it later?
 * If you want to share the website with a colleague, how do you do that?
 * If you want to let others (in a wider audience) know about this great resource, how do you let them know?

Delicious

 * Delicious is a free service that lets you bookmark websites directly to the web, allowing your bookmarks to travel with you between computers, independent of the computer and/or browser you are currently using.
 * How it works. Watch this YouTube video to get an overview.
