  Read; good lists of capabilities and uses, though most are beyond the scope of preliminary teacher uses, e.g.: sending bookmarks or annotations to your blog.

  After testing Diigo for a while, I love the fact that Diigo maintains all the annotations and comments that I’ve previously left on a web page, which speeds up future revisions on all of my previous findings. Furthermore, there are many specific public groups to join that will definitely help to expand my knowledge. Diigo, in my opinion, is not only an online research tool; it is a living knowledge sharing community.

  diigo review

  • If the Internet is your main medium for research, I believe that you know the importance of bookmarking and sharing your findings with colleagues to get the best information possible. Therefore, an online research tool will be very helpful in organizing gathered information while at the same time making it available to others for collaborative purposes. Diigo - a powerful online research tool fits perfectly for this need.
  • Diigo is a browser plugin that functions as a web highlighter, sticky notes, social bookmarking tool, and a social information network rolled into one. Once you have download and install the Diigo toolbar, you can start bookmarking websites, highlighting texts inside it, leaving comments and more.
  • 12 more annotations...
  • • Next, the knowledge sharing part of Diigo lets you share and discuss your findings with any available public or private groups. With Diigo, connecting with friends with similar interests can be done effortlessly through content sharing.

    • Features of Diigo

      
      

      As a personal research tool, you can use Diigo to,

      
      
      • Bookmark, highlight texts and add sticky notes to any websites that you want. All changes are persistent - that means you can see the same highlighted texts when you are browsing through the same page again.
    • 
    • • Group a web page with tags and lists.
      • Access all your research anywhere because all your bookmarks are stored online.
      • Search for a bookmark by a full text search, sticky notes, tags and more.
      • Share your research with others in multiple ways - send to blog, linkrolls, tagrolls, by email, post to other social bookmarking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Delicious, etc.
      • Automatically post findings to your blog with all the comments, highlights, etc.
      • Easily find the most popular content on Diigo to stay up to date with the hottest news.
      • Get recommended content based on your activities in Diigo.
      • Get related content while browsing the Internet - I recently stumbled a website with loads of useful comments from Diigo’s users.
      • Import bookmarks from other social bookmarking sites to Diigo.
      • The “Save Elsewhere ” feature allows you to simultaneously bookmark sites to Del.ico.us, Simpy or Ma.gnolia.

    • As a collaborative research platform, you can use Diigo to,

      
      
      • Join or create a private or public group to share and collaborate with people of the same interests.
      • Add private sticky notes that are visible to only members of the same group. This creates a platform for instant discussion (or debate!)
    • 
    • • Group tag - to enforce tagging consistency within a group, the group admin can set a list of recommended tags to be used by other team members.
      • Get recommended news from your Diigo’s friends - from Diigo’s sidebar, you can also see who is currently reading the same page too!
    • 
    • Extract comments / notes by other users on a website.
