"Organising search information task
First, choose the best three sources found in the previous task (and be aware all these sources and information can be contributing to your resource bank assignment!)
Using whatever software or tool you think appropriate, record the following information about those sites:
URL.
author,
institution,
blurb/ summary / screen shot (this can be a direct copy of an appropriate abstract or introductory paragraph on the site: but make sure you record and reference it as such)
Again, using any useful software you have downloaded, or utilising your existing software, record this information on your computer in the way that you think will be most useful to you in terms of preparing for your third assignment (that is, in terms of how easy you will find it to access, retrieve, understand, contextualise and recall why you saved it - and with what!). " (Allen, M n.d)
I'm a Delicious convert!
For this task I've chosen to record the websites (from the previous tasks) into my Delicious account. As requested I have the URL, Author, institution & Summary. I've chosen this method because I have all sorts of saved links that I've long ago forgotten why I saved them. Delicious lets me add 'Tags' , notes, a title and ofcourse the URL. I can record when and why it was saved.
