The following request from Diigo<\/a> got me thinking about this question. Diigo, a SOCIAL bookmarking site has noticed that few use the social opportunities the bookmarking site allows and wonder if it is worth the expense. I use Diigo as my personal bookmarking site and offer access to my own site to my students.<\/p>\n

The idea in the social of social bookmarking is that users can share access as a way to identify helpful resources identified by others. On the surface, this makes some sense. One can follow someone you consider a leader or someone with similar interests and see what they have uncovered. I do not use this capability a lot, but I do use it some. I would think sharing with students would be a great application.<\/p>\n

I wonder if many ways for locating resources (RSS, social bookmarking) have been abandoned as people rely on Twitter. Microblogs would seem useful for current events, but not as a way to search.<\/p>\n
