Tagging and social bookmarking is a new technology tool for me. I never knew such a tool existed before the start of this activity. At first, I was a little skeptical. While realizing its ability to find pertinent information faster, I felt too stuck in my ways to really consider it as an everyday tool. However, after watching the related videos and tutorials, I am convinced that I will definately use it in the future. I not only see its potential as an easy way to create bookmarks that can be assessed anytime from anywhere, but I also see it as a valuable educational tool. Teachers can take advantage of social bookmarking sites by tagging educational information that is available to all.
