Diigo is a social bookmarking website which allows signed-up users to bookmark and tag web-pages. Additionally, it allows users to highlight any part of a webpage and attach sticky notes to specific highlights or to a whole page. These annotations can be kept private, shared with a group within Diigo or a special link forwarded to someone else. The name "Diigo" is an acronym from "Digest of Internet Information, Groups and Other stuff".
Diigo is starting to be used by teachers in the North Side School across the curriculum and disciplines as a way to share information that we just don't have time to share face to face!
There is a toolbar for Firefox and Internet Explorer while the site also has an extension available on the Chrome Web Store.
Sign up and follow me, and hopefully together we'll discover some really useful stuff on the Internet for use in our classrooms!
