With diigo, you can do most of what you can with del.icio.us in terms of saving links with various tags, connecting to other users who have saved the same post or used the same tag, and tracking either users or specific tags (or specific tags of specific users) via RSS. Even more, however, is that like Furl, diigo captures a copy of the page, so if it disappears from the Web at some point, you can access it in your archive.
But what’s really different is the diigo allows you to highlight certain sections of any Web page you’re on, and also gives you the ability to attach sticky notes to the site. Those highlights and notes are then visible should you visit that page again. But even better, if you have a diigo account and I have “forwarded” the page to you, you can see them add your own when you visit the site as well. Think digital feedback on student work.

Add Sticky Notesaving to my diigo account, which in case you haven’t heard of it, is a social bookmarking tool that feels like a combination of del.icio.us and Furl plus a bit more.

Similarities to Del.icio.us
-
Diigo's key difference--the ability to highlight and comment on specific passages.
I can also forward the page to others--here Will R. mentions that a student could forward material w/ notes, and a faculty could also respond. - 1 more sticky notes...

I completely agree. This changes everything.

t to be very valuable. Currently, we are constructing a class wiki in preparation for the A.P. European Final. Students are to develop an analysis of online sites, and evaluate them. In the process, they are to examine the sites and utilize Diigo to interface with their choosen sites. All of them are connecting the sites to their individual delicious accounts, and then networking them amongst their fellow classmates. We are beginning to develop the social networking you were discussing.

Now while the diigo user base is much smaller than del.icio.us, quite a few people are adding some interesting links and resources. And one other nice feature is that when I add something to my diigo account, it also gets added to my del.icio.us account. By the way, C-Net has a review of diigo that highlights some of the good points.
