Share Your Treasures with the World!
Ever find a great site at home but have it bookmarked on a different computer? These sites will let you store you bookmarks online so you'll have them no matter what device you are using. Our teachers have been using portaportal for years and have bookmarked literally thousands of sites based on Virginia SOLs for elementary students. Looking for other ways to get to your information? Try a social bookmarking site like delicious.com to see how many other people have also bookmarked that site plus get the added bonus of being able to bookmark and categorize (tag) links directly from the page you are on. Want even more control of your bookmarking? Try Diigo. Instead of just bookmarking, Diigo allows you to highlight text and attach sticky notes to specific parts of web pages. Diigo highlights and sticky notes are persistent in the sense that whenever you return to the original web page, you will see your highlights and sticky notes superimposed on the original page, just what you would expect if you highlighted or wrote on a book!
