I have been using Diigo all through this course. I have found it helpful in several ways. First of all, I bookmarked all the readings so that I could quickly review them at any time. Secondly, and what has been most useful to me, is the highlighting function in Diigo. I can always go back to the article and read the highlighted points without going through the whole article again. When I share bookmarked site, I can recommend that those people with whom I have shared the site, read only the highlighted passages.
I find Diigo especially helpful due to my working environment. As I've mentioned before, I work, pretty much, in a vacuum. Social bookmarking helps with collaboration, in a virtual sense. I can share information with peers by creating a group or "friend".
Diigo, and social bookmarking, has brought my approach to research to another level.
