Social Bookmarks

Social bookmarks are a great way to store and sort your websites. What makes them "social"? These sites enable the ability to let you see the links that others have collected, as well as showing you who else has bookmarked a specific site. You can also view the links collected by others, and subscribe to the links of people whose lists you find interesting.

Spurl.net looks really cool. I am currently using spurl to help my wife with her research project finding online resources for RenzulliLearning.com. Check out my public bookmarks at: http://www.spurl.net/discover/user/jcnork/

Another popular social bookmark site is del.icio.us. Spurl allows me to share my bookmarks with del.icio.us. You can see how they show shared links here: http://del.icio.us/jcnork.

Of course you can subscribe to an RSS feed for these sites. This is cool!

Internet Explorer 7.0 to have full Support for RSS Feeds

In the latest article from Brian Livingston he reports that the next version of IE will have full support for RSS feeds. He quotes another interesting statistic that only 4% of internet users have experience with RSS feeds. When Internet Explorer supports the easy subscription of RSS feeds this will kick RSS usage into high gear! This is really exciting news!

I highly recommend reading Brian's stuff. Past articles are stored on his site.
