Social Bookmarking

Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to share, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web resources. Most social bookmark services encourage users to organize their bookmarks with informal tags instead of the traditional browser-based system of folders, although some services feature categories/folders or a combination of folders and tags. They also enable viewing bookmarks associated with a chosen tag, and include information about the number of users who have bookmarked them. Some social bookmarking services also draw inferences from the relationship of tags to create clusters of tags or bookmarks.Many social bookmarking services provide web feeds for their lists of bookmarks, including lists organized by tags. This allows subscribers to become aware of new bookmarks as they are saved, shared, and tagged by other users.

As these services have matured and grown more popular, they have added extra features such as ratings and comments on bookmarks, the ability to import and export bookmarks from browsers, emailing of bookmarks, web annotation, and groups or other social network features. social bookmarking can be useful as a way to access a consolidated set of bookmarks from various computers, organize large numbers of bookmarks, and share bookmarks with contacts. Libraries have found social bookmarking to be useful as an easy way to provide lists of informative links to patrons

To-do List

My power point topic is Chinese Zodiac. To prepare my screencasting project well, a to do list will provide so many helps for me whether I was preparing or doing the whole project. The to do list will seem like a guideline for all of us to follow, step by step.

1. Set up a program, which I will be used for the screencasting.

Since I have installed the jing program, so, I should have some extra days for me to get to know well about this program.

2. Final edit about my script, and practice as much times as I can, so that I will not be nervous when I recording my voice.

3. Find a private space, which should be quite and comfortable.

4. Clam down myself and recording my voice.
