Delicious is a social networking tool so I am told. I clicked on to the http to explore this new world of "Social networking." According to "The Shifted Librarian on PCMCL2, "It is a social bookmarking service that allows you to save bookmarks to an account on a web site, so that they are accessible from anywhere with a browser and Internet access, but also lets you share your bookmarks through tagging, just like Flickr. Very convenient! On the front page I noticed under the tag "Popular tags - Education" a cool site entitled "Online libraries."

Alongside this article they provide a useful "related links" option and I noticed there some excellent material for teaching and learning, amongst other titles. When I continued on the teaching link I came across "Teachertube" which had a video about 21st Century learning. It proports that "a 21st century learner is defined not simply by their use of new technology, but by their ability to learn autonomously." I agree!
I'm off now to discover more about Badges....
