Lee:

Another home run in your video series. I just sent it to my mom and family members that would Never Listen To Me, but will likely watch your video. The pace and clarity of the video are both excellent. The length is also spot on. Short, simple, and concise.

BTW, where is the "Old way... Boo!!!" and "New Way... Yeah!!!" - I thought that was becoming your Trademark? Please add it!

Great job again.

--Tony

Fabulous, fabulous video Lee & team!

Well explained, interesting and equally as good as all the rest of the videos in your growing collection.

I was listening out for the trademarked boo/yeah and was surprised when I didn't hear it - I even listened again in case I missed it!!

Well done!

Great work to the team. Very informative.

Great job Lee. This is another great, short video that clearly communicates the concepts and practical use of new web technologies. Social bookmarking is a hard thing for many of our clients to grasp and this video will really help them. I'll be blogging it up and embedding it in our site. Thanks again!

Awesome! Clear and easy. Makes me want to re-start using social bookmarks!

You know what I've never really understood? Social bookmarking. You know what I understand now? Social bookmarking.

Fab. Thanks.

This is another fantastic video! Thank you.

Loved the video, but you forgot one of my favorites:
#4 - How to send links to another user using the "for:" tag

Terrific Lee including your example. Have to wonder why you selected Math teaching. A previous career perhaps? But I need version 2. I use del.icio.us all the time but still can't figure how to have separate accounts on the one machine. What am I missing?

Lee and Sachi, you guys are awesome! Thanks for doing all that work. I've added this link to the forums on the thirty day challenge (http://thirtydaychallenge.com) as a resource to explain what social bookmarking is to newbies.

I've also asked for them to help you out by giving you the "social treatment" (digg, delicious, stumbleupon, facebook link sharing, etc).

I'd love to know if all that helps, because I'd be happy to keep doing that for you if it works. I'd love to see you get more and more public. Keep rockin' it!

Great incorporation of how to use and why the benefits can quickly outgrow an individual user.

Yay! This is the video I've been waiting for! I'm off to get a delicious account set up now and dive in. I'm sure I'll understand more of the finer points once I do it myself, but now I finally get the basics, and the "why" behind it. I think that's what's so great about these videos!

Thank you!

http://delicious.com = http://del.icio.us

Nice job Lee and Sachi!

Lee, you're one of the best educators in the field thank you so much for this.

Next, let's do one about podcasting or live video streaming (contact me if you need help or ideas)

I guess I'm the contrarian, but I don't miss the boo/yeah. This one feels tighter, and really focused. I love watching you explore your practice, figuring out what is both fun AND useful and really working hard on economy. Very cool, Sachi and Lee!

Nice job!

Only just discovered about you and what you do!
You really rock!
Going to add this to my toolbox of wonderful and helpful bits and bobs over here in the UK when supporting non-profits! (who are often abit scared and worried about all this interactivity on the web!)
Keep it up!

I learned something ELSE from this video. I didn't know that it was also registered under www.delicious.com.

I'll add the boos and yeahs when I show this to teachers. :-)

Like the video...but would LOVE it with the boo/yeah part. That is what adds the humor to the information!! Seems to stick with people!

Another pearl to share with everyone. Thanks for your simple yet informative style.

A truly wonderful video, thanks.

Wonderful, once again. Thank you guys!

Looks great. I'm adding it to my blog...

On delicious.com, is it possible to link the bookmarked sites to the user(s) who added them? For example, if I had an account named "JohnDoe" and I saved "privatewebsite.com" to Delicious, could other users look at the privatewebsite.com bookmark and see that JohnDoe added it?

learn about this video from labnol. awesome vids. clear and concise. now explain to my mom how to get that delicious button. that seems to be missing.

I can't thank you enough for creating videos that are simple enough for my parents to understand. They're really well done, too!

Thanks so much for what you're doing. HUGE need. I've posted twice about what you're doing in past 24 hours and my hits have doubled!

Fantastic stuff, keep it coming!

In the video you explain the social aspect as a bunch of friends looking at each other's bookmarks, but I more often look at the "popular" lists, which rely on an aggregation of tagged bookmarks from thousands of users.

This "bubbling to the top" of the best bookmarks is what makes social bookmarking a useful tool to me.

Diigo is probably the best social bookmarking site. It lets you highlight sections of a web page, and even comment on those highlights privately or publicly. It lets you have private, group, or public bookmarks. It even includes forums for the groups.

Diigo is awesome.

As always, great job!
I'm indifferent on the Boo/Yeah so do as you please with that one :-)

I never knew del.icio.us spelled out delicious. I feel REALLY stupid. However, I never knew what del.icio.us was used for.

Thanks for enlightening another newb =]

Hi all,

I have also posted an article about social bookmarking sites:

I'm a librarian who's been trying to grasp various Web 2.0 technologies by reading mountains of articles in my professional journals and spending hours in professional development courses. BOO! By watching several of your "Plain English" videos, I learned more in 20 minutes than I have in months. YAY! Crystal clear presentation. You're a gifted teacher!

Great video... but I really missed the "click" that you had in the Wiki Video. I thought it was a really cool transition effect... why did you decide not to go with it this time?

I'm blogeditor in Denmark and often faces problems in explaning social bookmarking to newbies - this video does the trick.

Keep up the good work

Hey Lee,

Great video again! Really dig your energy and enthusiasm in the voice over. It really comes across and really helps the piece.

Rock!

JON.

This is a great video. It says it all and says it well. I'll certainly be adding your site to my delicious account. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Ramona

Thank you!

I started using delicious. And RSS feed. And whatever you're planing to make video of.

Well Lee may not know the difference between Tonic Water and Club Soda ;) but he sure does know how to do a KILLER explaination of Socoal Bookmarking! Its so amazing even my mom could understand it.
FABULOUS! I.m gonna BOOKMARK it! and send it to all of my independent musicians who are rying to understand the web.

This is absolutely great, I love the way it combines 80s paper animation with new media technologies .. FAB!
I work with non profit organisations in England and this will be really useful to explain social bookmarking. Keep up the good work.

Hi, Lee. Great job on your video, which I just posted at contentious.com:

- http://snipurl.com/1pj4z

I took it a little further, explaining briefly how you can generate a daily post to your blog containing all your del.icio.us links from the last 24 hours.

Also, earlier, Jenny asked: "I use del.icio.us all the time but still can't figure how to have separate accounts on the one machine. What am I missing?"

I actually found a solution for that. If you use the Firefox web browser, there's a great add-on called del.icio.us complete:
- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2354

That allows you to manage multiple del.icio.us accounts, among other things.

- Amy Gahran

I know it wasn't my request for this topic that made it happen, but I am still so happy you did it on social bookmarking. :)

Been out of the loop for 3 weeks vacationing in Argentina. This is such a great treat upon return.

Thanks Again!
Joi

Totally excellent communication. Thank you;thank you; thank you!

I'm introducing social bookmarking to our parents forum and I link to your video as a great intro explanation. It would be nice if someone could do another one that helps us understand the state of the art in social bookmarking services.

easy

Harold Jarche pointed me to your videos. I love 'em. Great delivery, fast, good, accurate, lively ...

Keep up the good work!

Rod

But anyway the video is astounding like the others.
I'll double it to spanish soon

This is video is great, straight to the point, and easy to understand. I watched it with 10-year old son and he understood everything. I'll definitely add it to my Delicious.com favorites and recommend it to all my friends and colleagues.

Cheers

Ephrem

Great Video again! I have already sent this to a few people and gotten some very favourable responses.

I seems as though my opinion is in the minority, but I'm glad you didn't have the Boos and the Yeas in this video. The video seemed more professional without them and the credibility factor was higher. I feel more comfortable sending this to an older audience without the Boos and Yeas. There's no doubt that they are fun. Were this video just for a fun or aimed at a younger audience then I think they would be totally appropriate. But when you want to send this video to an older and more professional audience the Boos and Yeas lose you credibility.

As an corporate trainer and instructional designer and am intimately familiar with the challenges of teaching a professional audience. There needs to be a balance between fun and professionalism. They (the Boos and yeas) are certainly fun but do they effectively serve your purposes? As a fellow instructor, I don't feel that they always do.

All I'm really saying is consciously choose your balance between fun for funs sake and professionalism. Especially as this is a promotional tool for your business.

Aslam

Just wanted to stop by and thank you for the fantastic series of video's. Such a simple idea and executed so well. We were so inspired by the idea we have shamelessly ripped off your style to promote our own internally hosted enterprise2.0 social bookmarking project.

Great video. It was very informative.

Nice vid Lee. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the original presentation. It achieved the goal... to simply bring across an understanding of social book marking.

Well done and thanks for sharing!

Great video. I'm so impressed with your technique--it's entertaining AND informative. Thanks!

I have been using www.quickieclick.com and I find it very unique and easy to use. Though, a social bookmarking , I use it more as an organizational tool as they just opened their doors and are still building up their reputation and amount of links. But in due time I think they will do well. Their visual launchpad and shortcuts are what I like the most at the moment. Hope this helps you guys.

Quinn

Great video. Excellent explanation that I can send to my friends and family that give me blank stares when I try to explain this concept.

Tony Swatek, Vice President

Nice Tony, they must know Social Book Marking. We must have a successful concept for our online marketing regarding comprehensive way and the community.

Goodluck :D

Wow... what an amazing video presentation... seriously, one of the best I've ever seen! Thank you!

Good and informative. Thanks! This is the first time I've actually seen this stuff explained. Strange that these new sites and methods pop up, but they assume we're just supposed to automatically know what it is. I'm glad someone is taking the time to actually tell people what these new service are.

I love your videos, I've just watched several of them, they're great!

donssite

I've been looking for a video that explained social bookmarking in plain English. I kept hearing people talk about social bookmarking and didn't really get what it was all about and why anyone would use it. But after watching this excellent video I can now see the merits of social bookmarking and will definitely set up an account and bookmark this page for others to see! Very Useful video! Thanks...

alicante car hire

a great simple and plain explanation thanks you:)

Great Job. Thanks so much for your help and keep the videos coming!

Great demo and easy to understand. Sure beats trying to sync "favorites" folders on multiple computers.

Thanks much!

I've always wondered what del.icio.us was about, I didn't have a clue until now. Thanks for clearing it up! I see Yahoo has "Bookmarks" build into their toolbar now - is this basically the same thing? Or does del.icio.us have more to offer?

thank you now i know what bookmarking is really about before i used to be always confused of how to use it :)

Thanks for the re-cap. I never was quite sure what people meant by "social bookmarking" before.

its becoming as popular and trendy part of web2.0 for people to use and works great to find nformation from others

i have never really gotten into social bookmarking, but I think if it has lasted this long, it would make sense to start using some. Thanks for the vid.

You said "delicious dot com" actually it isn't "dot com"

Many bookmarking sites are come at every hour.
But some sites like delicious, digg etc are so popular.
They perform excellent too.
I have got good response when submitted my site
http://www.aboutdeangraziosi.com

nice video. we can get a free traffic from this but still being flooded with spams.

This video is good if you're just interested in del.icio.us, but it's not really covering the whole spectrum of social bookmarking networks.

For instance, for Digg it is more valuable to get vots for a single story, rathjer than create multiple stories. There is a good explanation here (along with how web developers might use this) -

Voting is a really big part of alot of these systems.

Great job Lee. This is another great, short video that clearly communicates the concepts and practical use of new web technologies.

oh my god.. i really had no idea about social bookmarking.. or about what delicious was all about.. i love.. plus i can now make sure my parents see your other vids so I can start weening them off of aol.. you're much better at explaining these things to them than me..! thanks!!!

I guess I'm the contrarian, but I don't miss the boo/yeah. This one feels tighter, and really focused.

I have been working with social bookmarking sites and appreciated your video. thanks!

social bookmarking - All of this garbage is actually waste of time

This is very interesting! I have enjoyed reading this very insightful post. Very engaging and informative. Thanks for sharing. :)

Good post. To add a social book marking button for everything, use these simple steps which I found to be useful!

http://pluking.blogspot.com/2008/03/social-bookmark-buttons-for-blogger....

The video was really interesting, I just signed up for del.icio.us, but have seen lots of interesting social bookmarking networks coming up. I currently write for the Halloween Costumes online retailer www.incostume.com and am new to social bookmarking. Your video was really helpful.

Very usefull. Thank you. I think I could make a starship if you explain how to do it this way.
I'm surely going to use del-ici0-us.

Social bookmarking is certainly the wave of the future. Maybe another video on which sites to use and which sites to avoid. There are so many these days.

Kimberly

Well, finally I understand what's behind social bookmarking. It's getting increasingly hard to keep up with the evolution of the internet. It's funny, I actually used del ic ous out of curiosity and in the process of adding psychic readings sites to my "tags", I have inadvertently created social bookmarking in this genre. Additionally, I have seen in the search engine results, pages from del ic ious using psychic readings the search term. I think the lightbulb went off, it was just a little dim at the time. But thanks to this informative video by Lee, ideas are shining much more brightly. Great! I'll be checking back.

A very simplified look at social bookmarking. I enjoyed this thoroughly. Well played!

Nice video, I really enjoyed it and I learned a little more about del.icio.us

thanks for this good article!

thank you very much and more of your wisdom please. still is confused with tages and bundles, it get a bit messy after importing firefox bookmarks into del.icio.us. Lot of tags got it messy. should we not care about the mess (cost from giving a bookmark, a full descriptive tags+possibility tags), since we have our blog anyway (for the best stuff)? or is it bundle function job? or just plain knowledge management skills?
thank you! you are making a big different, help people make best use of existing technologies, each web2.0s should have you in their sales pitch point 1!

Thanks for you support again guys!

Thanks for the valuable information! I had no idea ... yes, bookmarking pages does get confusing fast. I can't wait to start social bookmarking! PLEASE keep teaching us all stuff!

thank you so much!! found you b/c of Ariel publicity.
Thank you!!
:)

thank you so much!!

People don't understand that they should make their tags OneWord so that it doesn't split them up and make them incomprehensible (like "the best website" is a very silly tag).

Thank...This is another fantastic video.

Thanks for you support again guys.

Thanks very useful
