What’s with the 2.0?
Web 2.0
Collaborative culture
Sharing content
User-centered (vs. creator-centered)
Web-based software (vs. computer-based software)
More than new technologies – a change in attitude – more open, trusting, interactive, engaging
From “go get it” to “bring it to me”

Was there a Web 1.0? Web 1.0 Web 2.0 Personal web sites Blogs Outlook Google/Yahoo!

Where will you find tags?

How do web sites use tags? From www.poetryarchive.org

Is like “Favorites” in IE?
Del.icio.us a free, web-based bookmark manager
Start by importing existing bookmarks from IE or FF
Special bookmark button integrated in browser
del.icio.us Browser-based Favorites Use any computer Use own computer Multiple tags for one source One folder per bookmark Share sources easily Email favorites Create networks Find sources manually Annotate

de.licio.us-ly simple It’s deliciously simple!

Only required information - User name - Password Helpful to include email too

No need to start from scratch! Import existing bookmarks to start your de.licio.us account (default set to “ private ”)

Share link to one or all tags

Discover sites by searching tags

Find out what friends are tagging

Tagging as you surf the ‘net Look for a del.icio.us button on blogs and web sites

Or click the TAG button in your Firefox or IE browser

Add notes and tags then click SAVE

del.icio.us in your i-life
Create working bibliographies for projects by ensuring they share a common tag.
Build lists of resources with fellow students/ teachers(decide on common tags first).
Create a network with friends or fellow club members with whom you share an interest.
Subscribe to tags of favorite topics.
Add del.icio.us to your Facebook profile
Add a linkroll or tag cloud to your personal blog or one you’ve made for a club.

Planning & managing
Decide whether you’ll create one account or two – a personal one and one for school.
Spend a few minutes planning how you’ll tag so that your tags are consistent ( remember – no spaces within tags!)
Plural vs singular
Teacher’s names / course names
Clean up your tags periodically using the delete and rename tag functions

What questions do you have?
