exercise 8 -Tagging

Tagging seems good in theory but a little clumsy in these early stages.


Technorati was quite fun and useful for a quick whizz around the world looking for the latest news that comes up unbidden. I was pleased to find a window that enabled one to type in a specific search eg snow on Ruapehu and lo, information and even pictures about Ruapehu emerged!


Del.icio.us wasn't as useful as most people have been describing. Perhaps I've got the wrong end of the stick but I find it quite difficult to understand and to manouvre it to find anything I'm interested in. I found the numerous sites (book marks?) that others had looked at but, of course, predominantly American based. Perhaps when time allows I will explore it further.
