Del.icio.us (www.delicious.com) is a social bookmarking site created in 2003
by Joshua Schacter. It was designed to be a site which would help Internet
users organise online media in a quick, easy to access and user-friendly
format. Currently owned by Yahoo!, the primary function of delicious is to allow
you to store all of your bookmarks online and then to allow you to access those
bookmarks from any computer anywhere in the world. del.icio.us is more of a
community based tool in comparison with the other social bookmarking tools
out there, as it allows others to see your bookmarks. Essentially it lets you
identify other people whose interests and concerns parallel yours and grants
you access to all of their bookmarks as well.
