Tag - Your'e It!

Well, not exactly. But that's one the new Learning 2.0 "things" we did this week - Tagging. It's really a great tool if you ask me - oh yeh, they did ask me! Anyway, I checked out the discovery resources and proceeded to set up my own Del.icio.us account. I hit a little snag with getting the "buttons" to appear but with the help of dear friend, I was able to accomplish the task. I can see where this is a great tool that can be used amongst friends, colleagues, etc., to share what you've discovered and learned out there in cyberspace.

Think of a group that has a common interest - what a great way for person 1 to share what they've discovered with person 2. I like the tool but have to admit I was a little intimidated at first...but I got over it quickly. I'm not sure I quite understand how tagging can work with reference, but I'll figure it out. As I said earlier, I'm coming off of a viral infection and I think all the Nyquil has finally worn off. Next, we tackle how tagging works with blog posts.

If you would have asked me a year ago if I would be blogging and tagging, I would have thought you were nuts! But I'm learning a lot and anxious to learn more.
