This week we are going to look at the power of social bookmarking. Signing up is one thing, but actually getting the full value is another!

This week we want you to explore the following:

The more people you add to your network, the easier it is find new and interesting sites to bookmark. We already know a lot of East staff who have signed up to Delicious, so adding them to your network is important.

We add tags to each site we bookmark so we can find it again easily. Each site can have numerous tags.

Explore the beauty of tag clouds such as the one I created below of my top 10 tags on Delicious, using wordle. You can see a tag cloud of your tags on Delicious (which is explained in the Apprentice challenge).
