Unfortunately, Del.icio.us is blocked through our Intermediate Unit for our viewing at our school. This was horrible because my Library Resources page on my website was getting too long and the sites I had listed there for others to use were wreaking havoc on code and not displaying correctly.
I searched a lot of bookmarking websites to see if I could have one place where my students could go for my resources and found mister-wong (http://www.mister-wong.com/user/jgpotts/). I love the fact that the students can use a tag cloud to locate terms that they would like to search for. Before they would have to click a few items to get to what they wanted but now they can either click on the cloud or go to my bookmarks and type in the title. So far, this has not been filtered out at our school. Mister-Wong is very easy to use and the tech people get back to you ASAP.
I add sites to my favorites but I also add them to mister-wong. Or, you can upload all at one time, weekly, monthly, etc...
I love it.
