    Thanks for the comment! We teach this fairly often, but this time the students needed to make their accounts before I get there. Fingers crossed - hope it works!

  3. Before Creating Your Account
    • What is the purpose or function of this account?
      • Personal use
      • Professional use
      • Share links with others
      • Collect resources for a shared project
      • Feed to a web site (with what target audience?)
      • Something else?
    • Remember! You can have more than one account.
  4. Creating an Account, Part 1: Register - Enter Details
  5. Creating a Personal Account
    • If you want this to be private choose an account name or username that is not like your name in real life
    • The FULL NAME section may be left blank or filled in with a permutation of the username.
    • Use a different password than your Kerberos password.
    • Create or use a personal email address to use as the contact for the account (gmail, yahoo, hotmail, comcast, etc.)
  6. Creating a Professional Account
    • You want people to be able to find you, so choose a username that is like your real name
    • Fill in the FULL NAME section with your real name
    • Use a new password, not the one used for your professional accounts
    • (In a later step, you may link the username to your web page)
    • Use your professional email address as the contact for the account
  7. Creating a Group or Project Account
    • Is the group or project public or private?
    • Follow the guidelines for personal accounts if private, for professional accounts if public, except …
    • … create a group email account as the contact for the account
  8. Creating Your Account
    • Remember to check the email account for a message from del.icio.us to complete the activation of your account.
    • Notice the use of a captcha* as an anti-spam device. This means deli.icio.us is not accessible to persons with some visual disabilities.
    • * CAPTCHA = Completely Automated Public Turing Test to Tell Computers and Humans Apart
