One of the reasons I love diigo so much is the highlighting capability it brings. I’ve not used any of the other tools out there, as again, I’m a loyalist. But as I was reading, if I was reading it off a newspaper, magazine or any other print media I would have probably run my highlighter dry.

We've seen Diigo before, but now it has a few tweaks to simplify it. Diigo is meant as a collaborative research tool to let you highlight and bookmark specific portions of text you find on the Web. Diigo now also lets groups discuss highlighted text and and publish it onto a blog.

Why it might be a killer:
It combines features from a bunch of different sites into one thing, and all of these features work really well together. The ease with which you can add your content to blogs is really useful, and if students get word of this, it will make their lives writing papers and studying for their different subjects so much easier. When Diigo is criticized on blogs, there is a dedicated base of users that attack the bad review with proof of the site’s worth, which makes it hard to argue with. -
“Diigo (dee'go) is about "Social Annotation". By combining social bookmarking, clippings, in situ annotation, tagging, full-text search, easy sharing and interactions, Diigo offers a powerful personal tool and a rich social platform for knowledge users, and in the process, turns the entire web into a writable, participatory and interactive media.

As a result, the good news is that you won’t have to open up your wallet, and the bad news is that you will want to be extra careful in selecting your provider, for it might not be around for very long.

Hi Paul,
great post !
for me, diigo is mainly about information management and then about sharing.I agree with the thumbs up/down suggestion. it’s already possible to filter annotations by groups, which were introduced after you wrote your review
what’s your diigo page ?

Every now and then I get to write about something that takes a good idea and makes it better. When I first read TechCrunch’s review of Diigo back in March of 2006, I yawned, despite the reviewers enthusiasm. I had looked at many of the social bookmarking sites and saw nothing innovative.
My own lack of enthusiasm for social bookmarking sites clouded my judgement when I read that review.
>Today, I am a big fan of Diigo.
If del.icio.us is the most popular social bookmarking site and Digg is the most popular social news site, then Diigo should become the internet researchers tool of choice. Beyond basic bookmarking, tagging and sharing, Diigo offers a suite of tools that turn it into a robust research, annotation and note taking tool.
-
-
The hardwork put into Diigo is evident. It has become my bookmarking tool of choice.
-
Another great thing about Diigo is a very user friendly help section. I printed the whole thing out. After the 30 mins or so it took me to read through the material I had a pretty good understanding of Diigo’s capabilities.
-
The power of Diigo comes in with its annotations features. I already mentioned highlighting above. Diigo lets users aggregate those highlights. For example, you’ve spent hours researching a topic and tagged each site with a particular tag. On the Diigo site, you can pull up all those tags and display ALL your highlighted text. This provides you an easy way to view your information. This is a great tool for writers. Saves times from cutting and pasting quotes or flipping back and forth between all the bookmarked pages to remember what was pertinent to you.
-
The really cool thing about tags in Diigo is the ability to easily edit them. I can easily choose a tag and rename or even delete it. This task is made too difficult by other services.
-
When I go to bookmark a page, I can also highlight text and Diigo will save it. So in the process of research, if there is a key paragraph about the topic I am researching, I can highlight the paragraph and then bookmark the page. As long as I am logged in to Diigo, every time I visit that page, that paragraph will be highlighted.

A commenter on the Yahoo page
wisely noted:
Diigo really needs a function to thumb up/thumb down the comments for pages. This will get spammy, really, really quick.This is true and needs to be addressed by Diigo.

Well, Diigo rounds out its offerings very nicely by just this month launching its “Groups” function. That feature looks to be a clear and elegant way to allow anyone to set up a private environment for sharing your bookmarks.
Ultimately, if you combine the Web annotation capabilities with the ability to share in groups, Diigo has created a very enterprise friendly social bookmarking service.
> -
I particularly liked the sophisticated and advanced search option for doing a keyword search of one’s own or public bookmarks. On that page you can limit a search by a phrase, and restrict a search to a URL, title, comments or highlights. You can even search “on” specific users as well

Diigo is by far the most fully featured social bookmarking site in this list, and offers several unique capabilities. The most notable feature is that users can highlight text right on the page, as well as make annotations via a “sticky note” for later viewing.

I suffer from Twitter addiction occasionally, when I compulsively watch Twitter messages roll by instead of doing real work.
-
Learn important news
-
Create an ad hoc back channel at conferences
-
Find out when your colleagues are available for a chat. Nobody wants to bother someone when they’re in the middle of an important project, but IM presence indicators aren’t totally reliable. On the other hand, if someone twitters that they’re “searching for something to do” you know it’s a good time to check in with them.
-
See what people are interested in
-
Promote your blog posts. I don’t tweet every time I post something, but sometimes if it’s one I’m especially proud of or one I want quick feedback on, I’ll post a tinyurl to it.
-
Expand your professional network
-
but a broadcast message to those paying attention is a lightweight non-intrusive way to do it.
-
Make existing professional relationships stronger and more intimate.

I would like to stand up for the service in the face of the multitude of naysayers and hype machines that appear hell-bent on taking it down before understanding why it has become so popular in the first place.
-
It has also created an awesome ‘efficiency’ in my life…an emotional efficiency so to speak, where I have 140 characters to vent and get to connect with others that do the same.
-
I feel so strongly about it that it upsets me to see people reduce it to another friend collecting service or hype.
> It is compelling, interesting and captures the imagination of alot of people. Tell me other web apps these days that can say the same. It goes to show you, once again, that simple tools that disrupt are what we need to be concentrating on…not more ‘me too’ and ‘this will make me $$’ -
I feel so strongly about it that it upsets me to see people reduce it to another friend collecting service or hype.
-
I’ve gotten to know many people better this way and, even though they are non-personal sms messages that are under 140 characters long, they seem to say more about people than many blog posts or emails or even in-person conversations (as some of us are nervous or apprehensive when we first meet people, where twitter creates a level of inhibition in many).
-
Twitter has led me to making more friends.
-
Twitter helps me keep track of my friends.
-
Twitter is incredibly useful for tracking my activity.
-
I think most people would agree that if they send a twitter that they are looking for a perfect ___________, being pointed to the perfect __________ is a good thing.
-
Don’t tell the advertisers, but looking back through my twitters, it gives a pretty good picture of where I’m headed and what my needs are. In fact, many babies and weddings have been ‘announced’ on Twitter, which could signal a change in someone’s buying behaviour.
-
Twitter is incredibly useful for tracking my attention data.
-
I always loved the quote by David Weinberger from a talk he gave at the Library of Congress, “We are recording our histories, one blog post at a time.”
-
By not having enough time to post my blog, I was “losing” much of my thinking along the way. As my blog became more and more ‘professionally focused’, I was losing the personal things that matter to me.
-
Twitter is a representation of my stream of consciousness.

Diigo is a great, no, a fantastic tool(!) Not only for bookmarking but also for research, blogging and a must for any social bookmark mania. It's a kind if mix between del.icio.us (social bookmarks), Wizlite (web highlight and notes), Onlywire (multi post to social bookmarks), with Blogging support.
Notation: * = Private bookmark and comment|… = Clipping [?] | … = Public highlight [?]
