Week 2 Post - Delicious

What are the advantages of storing, sharing, and tagging web content this way? What are the disadvantages?

Delicious, at first, was a very scary site for me to use. I felt as though I didn't know how to navigate through the site and be able to use it quickly and effectively when helping a customer -therefore I rarely used it unless I needed too.

This quickly changed once I had a chance to really look and play around with Delicious and explore all the links that were available for me to use.

Some advantages of using Delicious are:
  • able to save websites for future use
  • quick and fast retrieval of websites
  • able to view popular or recent pages
  • alphabetical and easy to read "tag bundles"
  • it's FREE! (who doesn't love free stuff?)

Some disadvantages of using Delicious are:

  • no visuals to please the eye, doesn't seem to draw your attention into using the website
  • takes time to get used to how the site works
