Diigo
As I was reading through our textbook Adolescents and Digital Literacies, by Sara Kajder, I loved reading about the website "Diigo."This site allows you to bookmark sites to an account online. This means that whether you are on your laptop at home, or a computer in the library, you can have the websites all in the same place. You are also able to highlight things on the site and add sticky notes to remember important information. After reading about this website I checked it out a little myself online and found out that it's free! There are plans that you can pay for, but the free plan seems to have more than enough. You are able to have unlimited bookmarked sites and up to 1000 highlights per year. I think this tool seems extremely helpful in researching for a project or paper, and not only see myself using this for my classes, but also introducing this site to my students if they are interested in using it.

Suzanne,
ReplyDeleteI don't know about you but I bookmark EVERYTHING! Mostly because I know that if I don't I will forget the name of whatever awesome website I discovered. I find myself stuck on campus trying to remember these sights which are bookmarked on my computer. I will admit I even had to call my roommate for assistance once. I think this tool is very useful for educational and recreational purposes!
