Tagging Assignment

The search term I selected for this task was “globalization”. I don’t think I was either amazed or disappointed when I first searched in Technorati and found this resource to be clean and well organized. I liked the videos they offered as well as the filtering search option. I looked specifically at pictures as I knew the next site to search would be Flickr.com

I searched the flickr site and found none of the same photographs although I must admit I did stop before getting to the end. I did accomplish some extemporaneous viewing of the Grand Canyon and some quilts while on this site. They were fabulous pictures and it made me want to go up there to hike before it gets too cold - - oops- - I think I’m too late! I especially liked the “notes” that you could see when moving your mouse across the pictures. The Grand Canyon shots made me want to do a better job when out with my camera!

I had no previous experience with the Delicious site and I certainly was not disappointed. I thought it was a very user friendly site with an interesting Popular Bookmarks list on the front page. This is a quick solution to get to numerous topics that have been highlighted for you. I thoroughly enjoyed this site.
