Week 4, thing#13: Delicious.com

The old website tutorial "del.icio.us" is no longer available. PLCMCL2 is also gone. The site was re-sold to AVOS Systems on April 27, 2011 and relaunched in a "back to beta" state on 27 September 2011. There is a new video to introduce its new feature called "stacks". The web link for the new tutorial for the feature is "http://del.icio.us/help/getstarted". The site encouge people to use Firefox. I registered the new account and try to create a Stack with subject of 23 things and tried to collect various images to show how the features will work. My work is demonstrated at http://delicious.com/stacks/nationfrank. The problem I had is the website is not that fast and it took long time for me to move from one action to another.

Week 3, Thing#12: Rollyo

Free photos link on the 23 things blog has been identified by Rollyo site as spam so it is not usable. PLCMC is now having 11 sites in its family list but search is not working when I tried to do it on 10/7/2011. The site is very user friendly in terms of creating "Searchrolls" and add your onw blog site to the searchbox. It is also easy to add Rollyo's Searchbox to your own website as it displays below.

Week 3, Thing#11: librarything.com

Librarything is a very good software with attractive web interface. It is easy to arrange page layout and you can add and edit tags quickly. I particularily like the way it allows you to select beatiful covers for your collection. You can find my sample collection at: http://www.librarything.com/home/Frank0001.
