<p>This is a simply fabulous tool to help in the information management problem we face online. I can&#8217;t believe I had not embraced it earlier. It took me some time to add and sort all my personal bookmarks as at first I put masses of tags with each link. <img align="right" src="http://www.studyskillshandbook.com.au/images/photographs/extra/pet6resize.jpg" hspace="10" />Then when I looked at my enormous cloudtag I had to stop and really think about how I planned to use this tool. Did I really need a tag on &#8217;students&#8217; for example? Some of the generic terms were not really going to be of much use to me. So I stopped and really thought about how I would use del.icio.us (should have done this at the start I guess but the problem was that I until I had used the tool I didn&#8217;t really understand how it worked or its potential). I then went back and rationalised my tags, thinking carefully for each link as to what purpose or categories I would like to access this link from. This took some time as often a new thought would occur and I would have to go back and add that tag to a number of the links. I think with use I will be more effective in my initial selection of tags but I would love to hear any tips from experienced del.icio.us users as to the best way to make use of this amazing tool. I&#8217;d also be interested to hear if there are any users who became disillusioned with it &#8211; after all, as the photo shows, we all have different ideas on what is delicious!</p>
