For one of our elabs we had to create a diigo account. This allows you to bookmark things. Bookmarking allows you to access information more easily and helps to keep information organised. Tags are used in bookmarking. For our elab we were given a article to save to our diigo and then we played around with some of the different features which were available. Some of these features included highlighting which when you select a particular part of a text the background goes yellow and the information saves to a section in your library. Other features included Taking notes, screenshots, searching, collaborating and using groups, bibliography and sharing. From this elab i discovered that diigo would be a great way to store and save information that i come across that would be beneficial to my college work. It would allow easy and quick access to my information in an organised area and the highlighting feature would allow me to extract which parts of information were the most important.
