Well, del.icio.us and technorati were interesting to look at. I don't think at this point I would have much use for technorati. For the time that I spent on it, I did not really find anything that was really of interest to me. Possibly if I spent a little more time with it, I may find some value for it. That said, I don't think that it would be of much benefit for our organization. As well, with using the search engine and the web 2.0 link under technology, I did get different results. When looking for things through the search engine parts of the blogs were displayed given an idea of what the subject of the blog was. On the other hand, when using the other method to do a search, it gave the title and the url address only.
As for del.icio.us, I found it much more user friendly and easier to navigate around. When we were first given this assignment, I wondered why anyone would want to use this as it is very similar to the favourites on windows explorer. One thing that I did like about this was that the titles were larger and the tags made it a little easier to get to the topic you were looking for. Although you can make folders for different subjects on your favourites, it is one extra step to find what you are looking for. I think that if someone spent any amount of time on del.icio.us, they could set up some pretty interesting bookmarks.

One of the best features of Delicious, over using favorites in Explorer or bookmarks in Firefox, is that you can sign into Delicious from any computer any where and access all your book marks. So no matter where you are you always have your favorite sites at your finger tips!
