Our librarian has exposed our students and teachers to del.icio.us for several years now. The kids go to del.icio.us for everything. It really saves time when you bookmark a site and then the kids go there to pull it up. No more problems with misspelling or mistyping a web address. They all know the school log on and password and feel very comfortable using this social bookmarking service. It has saved us lots of time.
I really never thought about using it to search topics of interest. That's a great idea because someone else has already filtered out information and many times they have tagged good information. I'm going to start using it for research.

I love delicious - as you already know. I'd forgotten it had research possiblities too. Must investigate that.
