Let's fast-forward two months to make our second point: Why tags are so important.
Let's say you now have a hundred bookmarked sites. Chaos 1, right? Well, since you added tags, you have a way to sort the bookmarks by the tags you assigned. To find all the sites about "algebra 2", you click the "algebra" tag, and voila, one hundred becomes three. All your bookmarks are now more findable thanks to tags. But that's only part of the fun.
Now, let's look at the social part of bookmarking to make our third point. Think about your fellow teachers. Couldn't they benefit from seeing your bookmarks? Well, they can. Delicious bookmarks are public. This means your friends and peers can see your bookmarks and use your tags just like you. That's why this is called social bookmarking. Your bookmarks can benefit other people.
Think about it this way. You start bookmarking "algebra" sites and your peers can see the interesting sites you find. Then, they start bookmarking too. Within a few weeks, a group of teachers are all bookmarking their favorite math websites, and because they're all public, everyone discovers new and relevant materials.
Together, you create a network that produces a steady stream of interesting and useful websites, all organized by tags on the delicious website. The lesson is that social bookmarking sites take a world of chaos and make it orderly.
Remember there are three steps to get started. First, go to delicious.com to sign up and add the buttons to your browser 3. Second, start bookmarking sites with tags. And third, be social. Notice how useful and fun other people's bookmarks can be.
