Thing 13

I absolutely love the videos put out by the Common Craft show with host Lee.  They make everything so easy to understand!  Tagging sounds pretty useful - especially when you are switching between classes, using different computers, etc.  I was unaware that the delicious website was out there.  It will be interesting to explore and use come Thing 14.  However - I am worried that I am not going to remember all of my User ID's and passwords by the time I get to Thing 23!!!!  Maybe there's a website for that too!??!?!   Tagging does seem very useful - especially when you are getting information from several different websites.  A definite advantage would be to the traveling teacher - who uses a different computer practically every period.  After reading the 13 tips for tagging - it seemed to raise a few flags....  For instance, you are going to have access to a ton of websites that others have tagged - not just your select group of colleagues.  The disadvantage I can see to this is having a slight confusion - in Spanish for example, I would tag everything with the appropriate Spanish word.  You run into accent mark issues, Spanish vs. English tags, etc..  I did like how tip #12 - allowed you to direct your sites to a specific audience by using "for:username" - that I could see come in handy within my World Language department.  I will be interested in seeing how this all plays out in Thing 14.
