Here is the link to my
Diigo library. I have to admit that at first I wasn't too excited about Diigo. After spending time trying it out I have changed my mind! I wish that I had know about it sooner. I have been using Pinterest for a while and will continue to do so, but with Diigo I feel that it is easier and quicker to locate things. I am finding that the more I use Pinterest, that the more crowded my boards are becoming which makes it hard to go back and find what I am looking for. Diigo's tags and lists features make it easier to see what you have saved. I do like that Pinterest shows you the picture of the idea.
At first I did not use the list feature, but when I went back to create lists I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to add previously saved items to the new lists. Each time I save something new to my library, it is just one click to easily add that item to the appropriate list.
I also saw the "play as webslide" feature on the lists page. It shows the web pages from the library in a slide show. This can be helpful to help you remember what was on the page that you wanted to save instead of looking at multiple pages on the same topic.
Dear Diana,
ReplyDeleteI hope you will do a Show and Tell about the "WebSlides" feature in Diigo. It is a neat feature, and I don't think many people know about it. Usually, when I am using Diigo, I do lots of tagging, but when Diigo is used for social networking, some of these other features, in addition to joining networks to share bookmarks, are "really cool." I had not been using the "WebSlides," but just tried it out, and it is helpful to view your Listed bookmarks in this mode.
Thanks,
J. Arzt
I have started making item lists too, but have not checked out the WebSlide feature. I have found that joining groups was a great way to find the specific information I needed quickly.
