I'm trying to figure out what del.icio.us is likely to be good for. I like very much the idea of these generic mostly free-form tools that can be put to adhoc uses. In general in IT this is a way we succeed: delivering general, flexible services (email, web hosting, a portal) that the end users can figure out how to get value out of. (Contrast the approach of building very specific tools for particular purposes, highly instructionally-related technolgy applications, etc.).One thing it might be good for is quickly tracking what it is that I'm currently reading and what I've read .
Now I just need a portal to bridge all these tools.
