Before I learned about bookmarks/favourites in Browsers I
used to write the URL-s down in a notebook. Then each time I needed a website
link I would check my notebook. Now it is long forgotten, accumulating dust on
the shelf as I don’t use it anymore – the bookmarking option in the browsers
appeared.
Furthermore the technology wheel keeps rolling and creating
yet other even better options like Social Bookmarking. One of these and my first
experience is del.icio.us
What does it do? It
saves your links just the same as I did in my notebook: under various
categories (pages in my notebook) – different links. It allows you to follow
not only your own links but the links your friends have been saving. This way
you just “borrow” their links and use them as you please if you find them
useful.
Storing the pictures on the internet – once seemed a miracle for me. I didn’t have to worry about always backing up my pictures in order not to lose them if my computer broke. Now I don’t have to worry about my bookmarks too. They are safe on Delicious or on any other Social Bookmarking Service. And this is amazing because I don’t have to start from a blank page each time my Windows collapses (now that I don’t write the URLs in my notebook). Is there a data storage anywhere on the web I wonder? That would make things perfect!

ear Liliana,
ReplyDeleteI am always happy to read your thoughts. For me the Delicious site was also new, thus I am grateful to got to know about it. I opened my one as well and saved some link under different tag names, but I still have not discovered the picture saving function of it. So I am glad again to have such a wonderful classmate in this group, like you, to open my eyes wider. Now I am going to my delicious site and checking it.
Thanks a lot and best wishes,
Csilla
Csilla,
DeleteThe picture saving was on other sites. There is Facebook that stores pictures and a lot more other sites. Delicious saves only links. I am sorry if I was misunderstood. :)
Here is the link to some top picture storing sites if you want to store pictures.
