Someone said "Diigo version 2 is looking really good"

My works on Diigo were just released. Then Someone said "Diigo version 2 is looking really good". Oh, u know, I am so proud :0

Diigo is a social bookmarking/research tool that is very similar to del.icio.us but in my opinion has the edge in terms of features, usability and aesthetics. They have just released version 2 of their look and feel and it is really nice. One of the best enhancements is in the Diigolet bookmarklet, one of the tools you can use to bookmark and forward sites to others. Unlike most bookmarklets which are fairly plain the Diigolet actually looks and functions almost as good as the dedicated Firefox extension whilst at the same time working on a range of different Internet browsers. Checkout the video below to see what I mean...





If you have not tried any social bookmarking sites or feel like you could use a change I'd recommend giving Diigo a try. Joining up is easy and they have some nice importing tools for getting all your old bookmarks out of your browser or competing bookmarking service and into theirs.

An Explanation of Digital text and Web 2.0



Diigo Included!!

The Last one minute!

As if former guest blogger Mike Wesch
didn’t have enough to do, teaching enormous classes, creating world
simulations and so forth, he’s also created this video (thanks Kim for the heads up). My first thought was, wow, that’s annoying music… :)
but immediately afterwards I realized that this is a stunning example
of a video essay—an explanation of digital text and yes, web 2.0, which
is far more demonstrative than any written explanation I have ever
read. It takes that time-honored injunction “show me, don’t tell me” to
a whole new level. Bravo Mike! (oh, and watch carefully for the SM plug)
