  • Somehow, I find myself trusting Diigo more than Facebook, although you
    can connect to Facebook via Diigo. What's also present is the potential
    for "Diigo-spam." Ok, I've spammed everyone in my addressbook. I can't
    remember the last time I did it, but I hope that if you received an
    email via Diigo from me, you'll jump in and give this a try. If you
    don't want to, hit delete. Do I think Diigo is that powerful a tool?
    Well, yes. It offers something Delicious doesn't--groups, and a base of
    operations that interfaces with other tools. If I could share
    information using Diigo, ohmygosh, one ring to rule them all.



    One of the other aspects of Diigo I liked was that the Diigo crew is
    hopping to improve things. Importing bookmarks from Delicious API wasn't
    working well (i had to try 3-4 times), so they came up with an
    alternative way to accomplish the import. Dean
    Shareski
    complained about the interface, and they re-did the user
    interface. There's also talk of creating an education (student) friendly
    Diigo....

  • Easy group subscription - I wish there was a URL I could share with
    people. They click on it, and bam, if they have a Diigo account,
    they're subscribed. If they lack an account, it walks them through the
    process then makes sure to hook them up with the group. I just don't
    see how to do it easily now.

    • Everywhere I turn, people are
      joining Diigo, forsaking the simplicity of Delicious for the social
      nature of Diigo, which offers a variety of ways to connect with
      others--highlight text, then save it to your bookmarks, post to your
      blog, send it out as a tweet, and share it with a group of like-minded
      educators. The power of the network...comes alive in a way that removes
      the onus of commercialism so prevalent in Facebook.
