del.icio.us

I'm impressed with the quick play I have had on del.icio.us so far. I am currently planning an overseas trip with friends and it is a great way for us to share and keep track of what we find on the web as well as seeing what other people have tagged on Greece and Italy. I am looking forward to having more of a play on the weekend.

With regards to work (that is the real reason we are doing this afterall!) I think it would be good for reference work sharing finds between our 8 branches.

Videos Online

What a wonderful way to waste a lot of time! You could spend hours just searching and watching. From the look I have had today plus previously, I can see there are many funny and talented people out there.

With regards to how we could use it here, it would be useful for training. We have a number of branches and it might able to be part of an online training package. Would need some more thinking about how exactly.

Really liked the videoclip. Myself and a colleague were asked to set one up for a committee and we had no idea what we were doing. Within an afternoon, after finding this clip, we had it all set up including the start of the content. I like the capabilities of allowing the sharing of ideas, findings and blogs etc.
