Using Del.icio.us in libraries could be a great tool as we create more wikis for research topics. One way to use it that I thought would be particularly useful was the OCLC organization's creating of tagged book records that appeared in WorldCat by subject. I could see some good uses for tagging book records and creating bibliographies especially when Oakton's holding are listed.
I love the word folksonomy to describe this tool!
Comparing Del.icio.us with Google, I chose to look up Volvos since we just got a new old one. In Del.icio.us I found 100, many of which could be useful. Googling Volvos resulted in over 2 million hits and of course, a lot were sales sites. Definitely, in this case Del.icio.us won out.
