Thing 6 Diigo

My diigo account I know that i will enjoy using diigo. The dificulty with getting work done at home without all of my school bookmarks has always been a hassle. I have struggled with this problem several times. It will be nice to access all of my bookmarks from anywhere. Diigo was very easy to use. I realy liked being able to highlight some text, and it show up in the description. I am looking forward to playing with it more at home.
Professionally I believe Diigo will help me work away from the office, as well as share information with people within the field of education.

  1. I have to completely agree with you about the challenge of working from multiple locations--home, work, at school (when we crazy teachers go back for yet another degree), and the many other places our on-the-go lives take us. It would be nice if we could get everything done during the school day, but the reality is that, like everything else in our lives, we work on-the-go, too. I've been using Diigo for about a year, and it has transformed the way I work. I can manage my time so much more effectively. I also am a prolific bookmark-er, and b.d. (before Diigo) I couldn't find that bookmark I really wanted to find. I remembered saving it, but there were just too many to sift through. I think tags are the greatest feature for me. I also love the highlighting feature so you don't have to reread the whole web page to find that little nugget that made you bookmark the page in the first place. I really, really wish I'd had a tool like this in grad school! Keep playing around with Diigo--a year later I am still learning new things.
