The Tools of Web 2.0...my #19

Looked at FURL, which is a bookmarking tool. "Store your favorite corners of the internet and let others discover the cool stuff you’ve found. Comment on the content you find and read what other users are saying about your bookmarks."

I am always looking for ways to better manage my bookmarks. I started using MyYahoo to stash the bookmarks I wanted easy access to on the road. Furl.net appears to be a better solution. I like that you can make your bookmarks public, so they can be shared. This tool has LOTS of features, which I will look at after 23 1/2 things.

I would like to see more librarians at Queens sharing their bookmarks. It would really add to our toolbox at the reference desk.
