Diigo

I like Diigo so far, it's nice to be able to bookmark from anywhere and know you have access at home. I've been using that feature on StumbleUpon, but then I get sucked in to a whirlpool of unproductivity and before I know it two days have passed. (For those who don't know StumbleUpon is a program that sends you user generated content about things you find interesting).

I like being able to link things that I don't want to lose but also can't read at work because it's work time and not fun time. Even if I book them at my work computer it's not likely that I'll come back to read them since it's almost always work time at work. :)

I'm not a student anymore, but I can see how using this as a research tool would be pretty awesome. I was in the generation that did a lot of reading on line but before tools like this and OneNote existed. Too bad, but we made it through anyway. I think as time passes and the world gets more electronic that tools that combine the ease of use of paper and the availability of electronic media will get more popular.
