Delicious  Review


              Delicious.com is a website for saving and sharing bookmarks. It has a very simple look to it and you have to make an account to save and share your bookmarks. There is an option for installing a button for the website. The buttons are for going to the website and also a generate tags button for whatever site your on at the time. The website seems very good for having all of your bookmarks in one place and organized. However you can do something similar with your web browser without making an account for a website. Google Chrome has a bookmark option it may not be as organized as delicious.com but you can organize with folders. I can see this being helpful for coworkers or for students as an easier way to help each other with research but other than that I do not see that much of a reason to use it recreationally. Also that the name goes from Del.icio.us. To Delicious is something they should change. There are many website that make small changes to names to infect people’s computer and that this website name changes when it loads can scare people away.

Advantages - Organized, sharing, easy to use and good for groups.

Disadvantages - unfamiliar website,web browsers already have bookmarks, possible trolls sharing spyware websites, account making.
