Very interesting chapter on combining all our social bookmarking apps and websites. I never did much social bookmarking like delicious, feedly, diigo, etc....in the past. I like the way it works and the many uses it has in the education field. I am always interested to learn about new technologies like Diigo and this one did not disappoint. Diigo was the best part of this chapter and I am starting to use it on a regular basis. When combining all of these technologies and introducing them to students, their learning possibilities can be endless.

I thought there was a lot of great information in this chapter. I can't believe how much technology is out there and the amazing things it can do. It is hard to get some teachers to see the good in it, when it is just another thing they need to learn to do. Being a media specialist in a high school it is hard for me to see some of this technology not being used.
