Technoralti was not Del.icio.us to me

I spent some time this morning exploring the first part of the week 6 assignment. Technoralti was way over my head, however I successfully created a Del.icio.us user account. Not to sure where my button went but I'll explore that more at home on my own computer. I listened to the 8 minute tutorial and that helped me to understand the mind blowing potential of this site. As Kathleen Gilroy stated in the tutorial we have to find the "magic middle" or the time we spend exploring these sites could be overwhelming. I also found another interesting site that I added to my feeds. Lifehack.org... they had a post "32 Hacks for sticking to your budget" and last but not least #32 stated "Borrow books from your library, don’t purchase them. This puts an imperative on you to actually read your books (how often do the ones your purchase just sit on the bookshelf?) and saves huge amounts of money if you read a decent amount." Never hurts to get a plug in for the library!
