Comments from some of those who selected Delicious as one of their Top Tools 

• “Simple tool to bookmark sites your interested in but can’t read immediately, sharing made easy.” Corinne Burkhert
• “To tag all, and share. Source of great learning resources too.” Maria de los Angeles Castro
• “crowdsourced learning, best links” Martin Schlichte
• “I’m constantly adding webpages or blogposts to my Delicious. Information I can use for presentations, lectures, blogposts and papers. My student’s are used of finding a link to a specific Delicious tag in their ‘required reading’ list. I teach my students to search in Delicious as an alternative to Google. I like the collecting aspect of saving websites to Delicious (more, more!)” Jeroen Bottema
• “Social bookmarking is one of the most useful tools on the web. I can save, tag, and easily re-find sites that are useful, and I can see what others with similar interests to mine are saving. It’s almost a research assistant!” Joan Vinall-Cox
• “Personal bookmarking at its best. If, like me you work on a number of machines in a number of locations, it is useful to access stored links and documents from a browser regardless of where you happen to be, once you have an internet connection”.  Michael Hanley
