Hints from the Hive: Bookmark your sites

Are you having difficulty remembering how to get to HCPL's Learning 2.0 blog or how to get back to your own blog? Try adding these things to your Bookmarks or Favorites lists. (Or you can skip ahead to Thing 13 and set up a Del.icio.us account. Delicious is basically an online bookmarking or favorites list.)

To add something to your favorites list, click on "Favorites" on your toolbar. (Depending upon your browser, it may say bookmarks instead of Favorites.)

You will then get a drop down box. The first item will be "Add to Favorites" The you will get a pop up box allowing you to add the address (URL) of the website you want to bookmark.





Once you bookmark something, you can go back to the Favorites command on the toolbar, scroll down to the item that you bookmarked and click on it. It will take you right to your favorite sites.


On a lighter note, I just came across a great quote from Groucho Marx in a link from Helen Blowers (LibraryBytes Blog)


"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it is too dark to read."
