Diigo

Here is my Diigo profile. After watching the short video, it described three steps:

1. Tag and List-this is a great way highlight, bookmark, and annotate web pages. 
2. Connect and Engage-this is joining groups where we can communicate with others.
3. Get personalized content reccomendations-  I like the fact that it will suggest people with common interests.

According to wikipedia,  A Web 2.0 site allows users to interact and collaborate with each other in a social media dialogue as creators (prosumers) of user-generated content in a virtual community, in contrast to websites where users (consumers) are limited to the passive viewing of content that was created for them. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites,hosted services, web applications, mashups and folksonomies.

Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to organize, store, manage, and search for bookmarks for resources online. Unlike file sharing, the resources themselves aren't shared, merely bookmarks that reference them. This is an advantage over traditional storage because you can access your bookmarks from any computer. 

When I joined Diigo, I wasn't sure where to join as an educator (I just found it-TWO DAYS LATER). I went ahead and applied, I just hope I do not have to change anything and it will merge into the account I created. I joined a few education groups and cannot wait until I have a few hours to play around with the site more. I could not however add all of the tool bars. I am trying to add to my library, I wrote a note, and followed some friends. When I completely figure Diigo out, I hope I love it as much as I do my blog!

I feel that this hits ISTE Nets standard 5: Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership.
