I've had a look at Delicious this afternoon and have found it to be a very useful way to keep all my reference resources in the one place. I've been using it on the University computers and am now making use of it at home. I'm starting to recognise the potential benefits in keeping all my resources on this site. Firstly my files on my home computer and my usb stick are no longer going to be clogged up with articles Ive been saving to them. Its also another way of ensuring I'll still be able to access them if I ever have problems with my own computer or lose my Usb stick.
So far Delicious seems to be fulfilling the creators claims, its also a great way of finding people with similar interests and allows you to add friends to your network which then gives you access to their tags. I managed to find Joel on delicious but haven't found Mei yet. Mei, Is your user name the same as your blog username?
By the way, I've been experimenting with End note and haven't found a way to transfer records from my delicious account to my Endnote library. Can either of you shed some light on the situation?

Hey, no, my delicious account is 'maeish' so give that a whirl. :-) I also can't seem to find a way to export my bookmarks to endnote. If there is a way, Delicious isn't making it easy for its users to find the correct way to do it. I agree that, by being web based and therefore centralised, it is very convenient particularly in today's world where most of us are on the move.
