Since starting this unit I have become a major fan of Delicious and now habitually save bookmarks to delicious as it is easy to access, easy to retrieve and is ordered how I want it.
I used Google, Bing and Yahoo to search for the same search term “internet communications” in these 3 search engines and saved them all to my Delicious bookmarks. When saving to Delicious you get the option to name the website you are saving so you can give it a unique name. Also, there is the option to place it in a particular folder which I have different folders set up depending on what the website relates to. Then there is an option to tag the website. Depending on which folder I place the website, there may be certain words which relate to another folder.
For instance as I am studying more than one unit, there can be times when information can overlap into another unit so the website could be useful for both unit material. Also as I work in the web industry there is a lot of information I have found studying which is also useful for work so it is important to be able to use tags to describe a website so I can easily find what I am looking for when I need it.
The three sources I found I have detailed the first result for each:
