Delicious Bookmarks

I never really used Delicious before this assignment but I feel it's an excellent method for storing my favorite information from various websites, tracking hot topics, and discovering new sites. This is definitely a form of “collective intelligence”, because it is constantly adding, reviewing, and filtering new information from users. These users help save time because they really minimize the amount of junk to sort through with the help of their linked bookmarks! I also liked it because it become a centralized management system for information. There are a number of useful features I liked as well. 

1. Firefox extension
2. keyword searching
3. Google Reader bookmark
4. Planning (grocery shopping, movies, trips)

However, as much as I liked it, for some reason I kept thinking of Pinterest. I really felt like in some way this service was no match to Pinterest's. I don't really use bookmarks all that often anymore because I used to use them as a means to plan and organize my life. So I'm not quite sure if I find this useful. I much rather use Pinterest :-)
