After listening to Susan Fridie's lecture I explored a couple of the different bookmarking tools she reccommended on my own. I agree with Holly's comment on the Blackboard Discussion that Clipmarks seems to fit my needs best in terms of organiziation. I like that Clipmarks allows me to highlight information that I know will remind me of why I bookmarked the site in the first place- it seems to serve as a combination of Kaboodle and iLighter features all in one.
I created a topic on my Clipmarks page (http://clipmarks.com/clipper/Karamel625/) entitled, "Election '08." I have recently been researching Obama and McCain's education policies for another assignment and so I decided to use Clipmarks to organize some of the sites and information I have been finding. I think this could be a useful tool for future research projects because I often find myself overwhelmed by all the information out there and struggling to remember which sites I liked best and where I read which information, etc. Maybe Clipmarks is my answer...

I really like how you organized information on the upcoming election using Clipmarks. Since Clipmarks can organize information into smaller folders you used one of them to keep information only pertaining to the election. It seems like a very easy place to gather information and find it at a later date. I am thinking of adding an election day folder to my Clipmarks page. I also like the format of your blog, it is easy to navigate.
