Week 7

Tagging and Social Bookmarking are useful means for anyone on the web to access information and to utilise their information. It helps to organise, retrieve and share online resources.

Library Thing allows you to create your own personal online catalogue of books, Rate and categorise (tag) books you have read. Find new books to read by similar authors or on similar topics. Get book recommendations. Interact with people who enjoy the same reading interests. You can check out other people's libraries, see who has the most similar library to yours and swap reading suggestions.

In Libraries for example a student may wish to look for information on a project ie: Japan other useful information which has been tagged by other students can then be accessed.
