Thought you might also be interested in checking out http://www.diigo.com. It’s not just simple web annotation, and much more than a social bookmarking tool. Rather, it is a knowledge-management solution. What sets Diigo apart is that it handles *Knowledge*, rather than mere sticky notes and links.

More and more educators have started to discover Diigo: Project-based learning is an effective way to teach students and cultivate their skills of finding, organizing, synthesizing, and presenting information, as well as the social skills of working in groups, all of which are necessary in the knowledge-based economy. Diigo is the perfect tool for this kind of exploratory and collaborative learning.

Diigo is an effective tool for teaching as well. Diigo’s features allow teachers to highlight critical features within text and images on web pages, to collect and organize series of web pages and web sites into coherent and thematic sets, and to facilitate online conversations within the context of the materials themselves. Diigo also allows teachers to collaborate and share resources among themselves.

A whole array of very exciting innovations will soon be unveiled. We’d love to have your participation and hear what you think!
