Diigo is perhaps one of the web’s premier research tools - this is widely accepted. Whether Web 2.0 actually ever existed is irrelevant, but the innovation brought to us these last two years is undeniable. The big question for me has been:
“Does the innovation actually do anything for us?” I think I have tested and reviewed over 300 startups in the last couple of years, and I can honestly say that most of this innovation has been directed at entertainment or rather useless “cuteness”. Diigo as a tool, could be viewed as a much more serious innovation by comparison. -

Diigo provides many ways to organize your bookmarks including tags, groups and lists. Lists offer a unique way to collect, arrange and share a series of bookmarks. Once created and populated, a list can be shared by email, as a link from a web site or blog, published to a social site or presented as a slideshow using Diigo’s own WebSlides. Lists are a great way to spotlight a special collection of bookmarks.
