Virtual Tour Stop #2: Social Bookmarks (Delicious)

EXPLORE [10 Minutes]:

Using tags to locate a bookmark in a social bookmarking site: A tag is a keyword used to search out and retrieve relevant bookmarks. We want to look up the sites related to Web 2.0, so we will use the tag web2.0. Notice that there are no spaces between the letters or caps included in the tag. A tag is ONE word, so to tag a phrase, such as “Chapter 2,” the tag becomes chapter2.

Let’s use a tag to find those Web 2.0 links on the Handy4class.

**1.** Go to [|Handy4class's Delicious Bookmarks].

**2.** Search the Web 2.0 links on Handy4class by typing **web2.0** (no spaces or caps) into the tag search box.



2. Now click on the arrow to start the search. 

3. There is another way to search for tags on Delicious. On the right side of the screen, you will see a list—or index—of tags. Simply click the appropriate tag.



DO [15 Minutes]: 1. Use the tag **videos** and locate the Parody of "The Office" to Highlight Challenges of Teaching with Technology.
