NEW COMM ROAD MAP
How to get the most out of del.icio.us, a social-bookmarking site.

1. Add “my del.icio.us” and “post to del.icio.us” buttons to your browser for easy bookmarking.
2. Tag, tag, tag! Use meaningful tags that will help you to find your posts later on, and will be useful for the community.
3. Add meaningful text and comments in the Notes box.
4. Build and follow your del.icio.us network, and share meaningful links with them.
5. Use the “private saving” option in your settings to keep selected bookmarks private, or to share internally or with a client.
6. Use the subscriptions area to follow tags and keywords.
7. Export RSS feeds from del.icio.us into your RSS reader.
8. Incorporate your bookmarks and tags into your blogs.
