Thing #15
I am getting behind on the challenge. I still have skipped thing 9 and 10 but alas, I'll get to it. Thing #15 was to try del.icio.us. It's useful for organizing my bookmarks and still be able to access them from any Internet computer (great for websites used for programming and be able to work for various computers). I can see it being very useful for patrons who use the public computers. It is also useful in that you don't have to use your own computer's space to bookmark. A co-worker swears by Notebook because one can add notes to it as well. I have found; however, that I have added most of my bookmarks to my blogspot already to do the same thing: save computer space and to be able to access it from anywhere. I am also getting tired of all my user names and passwords for I'm losing track of them. Is there a spot to store them? Ah, technology...attempting to keep up is a full time job.

You might be interested that there is a movement called "OpenID" that is looking at a resolution to the "too many logins" problem.
Wordpress (a blogging software) enables OpenID -- you basically use the URL of your blog and that is your login. The only problem is that OpenID is not universally supported (yet!).
Firefox has another option, but it is a little bit confusing. Basically, you can create "profile" when you login and then have a "master password" that enables the "remember your passwords" feature. That means you can keep track of everything with one password.
I might put this up on the blog sometime though. So busy with website and all. . .
