thing 13 - delicious

peer driven (information directory) - is that a good thing? freely chosen keywords vs. taxonomies - is that a good thing? sometimes it feels like i'm using a *really bad* search engine, only worse. hmmm... i do not know what to say. delicious is probably v. useful for teachers, students doing research - and stf did a great thing for the middle school summer reading list, as a way for gathering information and resources (by a professional) that can be easily shared and accessed online with students.

but, i would not say it is something i will ever use in my personal life. and, i'm not that crazy about the design of the website. the font style/size and colorings, some things upper case, some things lower case, make it a little difficult for me to read and it looks overall ... not so hot, to me.
