Thing 4 - social bookmarking

Oops, accidently posted a post with nothing in it.  Glad they have "edit posts".

I found this out very helpful.  I had heard of del.icio.us but never knew what it was.  This is how I'll be doing my bookmarking from now on.  I'm always on different computers between the 3 hospitals I work at and the simulation center.  I'll admit I'm a little creeped by the "social" part of it.  Do I want work colleagues to see what links I post to ?  Can they see it?  I don't think so, but until I dive into it a little more I'll watch what I put on there.

I'll make a little plug.  I've been using a little web gadget called Toggl to keep track of how my time I spend on projects.  I didn't use it to figure how much time I spend on this Thing, but that would have been a really good idea.

I looked a little at the other sites - Digg is interesting, and I've heard a lot about StumbleUpon.  For now, I'll just stick with one site (Delicious) and see how I do.
