How to use Delicious for research

Delicious is a great way to store bookmarks for web pages online. But actually, it does a lot more too, as C. Wess Daniels explains in his blog post Tips for Using Delicious In (Doctoral) Research:

Delicious at its very core is a site that stores websites you’ve bookmarked online, so you can get at them from any computer, but that’s just the beginning. For those of you who don’t really know much about delicious but are interested in setting it up, you can check out my presentation on what it is, why to use it and how to setup an account, or you can watch the far more clever video “how to explain delicious to your parents (also see their help page). Basically, what you need to know is if you are doing any kind of research where you use the web frequently you’ll find delicious very helpful.
