Task - Create a personal social bookmarking site. This is a useful service for archiving and sharing resources of various types you encounter in this course and elsewhere. My recommendation is Diigo, but there are many options here (Pinterest, Delicious).
Social bookmarking sites can be shared and this can be an opportunity for discovering new resources and information. Sharing your bookmarking site will not be a requirement in this course. I will ask that you send a screen capture demonstrating that you have created a personal social bookmarking site.
