Comments on: Delicious Thing 15! http://q8biology.edublogs.org/2008/10/31/delicious-thing-15/ Another excellent Edublogs.org weblog Sun, 07 Dec 2008 21:16:55 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: Shelley http://q8biology.edublogs.org/2008/10/31/delicious-thing-15/comment-page-1/#comment-10 Shelley Sat, 01 Nov 2008 18:22:58 +0000 http://q8biology.edublogs.org/?p=24#comment-10 Unsolicited suggestion -- "tear the bandaid" as it were and import all your bookmarks from all computers and browsers, then do the tagging and culling over time via delicious. Just do a quick pre-emptive check in case there's anything you would want to "unshare" from the mass upload -- easy enough to do -- I have only a few of those and I give them a special tag (along with any other tags) to keep them easily accessed, and make sure to check the "do not share" box. The main way I use that feature is to give myself hints in the description box about usernames and passwords (I don't put the actual password, just a hint that would jog my memory). Unshared stuff is only seen by you when you are logged in. Then you can just tidy-up a few sites a day until the chore is done. Side note -- your initial foray into tagging is so impressive! The effort know will pay off hugely over time!
