Teresa Rush's List: Diigo

Here is a snippet of the ideas being shared in online conversations by incredible educators that you may be missing out on: 

Diigo

 
• Don't just bookmark! Highlight the web! Add sticky notes too!
 
• Access and search your findings from any PC or iphone!
 
• Create groups to pool resources for specific projects.
 

 
• You are what you annotate, creating a presence for you in the community.
 
• Connect with friends effortlessly and non-intrusively through content.
 
• Discover quality resources on any subject or get personalized recommendations.
 
• Bookmark, highlight, and add sticky notes to any web page
   
  • Diigo highlights and sticky notes are persistent in the sense that whenever you return to the original web page, you will see your highlights and sticky notes superimposed on the original page, just what you would expect if you highlighted or wrote on a book!
   
 
• Organize your bookmarks and annotations by tags or lists.
   
  • Tags and lists are two different ways to organize information. Tags are best for diverse and disparate information, while lists are best for focused information.
   
 
• Access and search your bookmarks anywhere, by tags or by full-text
   
  • Since all your bookmarks and annotations are stored in your Diigo account on the web, you can access them from any computer with web access. Your web pages are cached so they will always be available. You can search your collections not only by tags, but also by full-text, including highlights, sticky notes, and the full-text of the web pages.
   
 
• Multiple ways to share your bookmarks and annotations
   
  • You can publish your findings to your blog by using the one-click "Send to Blog" feature, by setting up automatic daily posting, or by adding linkrolls and tagrolls to your blog. You can send multiple annotated and highlighted pages at once by email, and the recipients will see exactly what you are referring to. You can also easily post to other websites such as twitter, facebook, delicious, etc.
