Diigo - Powerful Online Research Tool - 1 views

  • If the Internet is your main medium for research, I believe that you know the importance of bookmarking and sharing your findings with colleagues to get the best information possible. Therefore, an online research tool will be very helpful in organizing gathered information while at the same time making it available to others for collaborative purposes. Diigo - a powerful online research tool fits perfectly for this need.
  • Diigo is a browser plugin that functions as a web highlighter, sticky notes, social bookmarking tool, and a social information network rolled into one. Once you have download and install the Diigo toolbar, you can start bookmarking websites, highlighting texts inside it, leaving comments and more.

  • Next, the knowledge sharing part of Diigo lets you share and discuss your findings with any available public or private groups. With Diigo, connecting with friends with similar interests can be done effortlessly through content sharing.
  • Features of Diigo


    As a personal research tool, you can use Diigo to,


    • Bookmark, highlight texts and add sticky notes to any websites that you want. All changes are persistent - that means you can see the same highlighted texts when you are browsing through the same page again.
  • highlight-and-add-comments-on-diigo
    • Group a web page with tags and lists.
    • Access all your research anywhere because all your bookmarks are stored online.
    • Search for a bookmark by a full text search, sticky notes, tags and more.
    • Share your research with others in multiple ways - send to blog, linkrolls, tagrolls, by email, post to other social bookmarking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Delicious, etc.
    • Automatically post findings to your blog with all the comments, highlights, etc.
    • Easily find the most popular content on Diigo to stay up to date with the hottest news.
    • Get recommended content based on your activities in Diigo.
    • Get related content while browsing the Internet - I recently stumbled a website with loads of useful comments from Diigo’s users.
    • Import bookmarks from other social bookmarking sites to Diigo.
    • The “Save Elsewhere ” feature allows you to simultaneously bookmark sites to Del.ico.us, Simpy or Ma.gnolia.
  • As a collaborative research platform, you can use Diigo to,


    • Join or create a private or public group to share and collaborate with people of the same interests.
    • Add private sticky notes that are visible to only members of the same group. This creates a platform for instant discussion (or debate!)
  • groups-in-diigo
    • Group tag - to enforce tagging consistency within a group, the group admin can set a list of recommended tags to be used by other team members.
    • Get recommended news from your Diigo’s friends - from Diigo’s sidebar, you can also see who is currently reading the same page too!
  • diigo-users-reading-the-same-content
  • Extract comments / notes by other users on a website.
  • extract-notes-with-diigo
  • After testing Diigo for a while, I love the fact that Diigo maintains all the annotations and comments that I’ve previously left on a web page, which speeds up future revisions on all of my previous findings. Furthermore, there are many specific public groups to join that will definitely help to expand my knowledge.
  • Diigo, in my opinion, is not only an online research tool; it is a living knowledge sharing community.

Paperless Reading on Your Mac - AppleMatters - 6 views

  • Paperless Reading
  • Oct 13, 2009
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • I want my desktop printer to be nearly as archaic as film-based cameras.
  • Recently, I’ve also discovered a great site called Diigo.com
  • When I recently stumbled upon Diigo.com I found the perfect solution for bookmarking and annotating web pages instead of saving them as PDFs or wasting paper and ink by printing them.

    Diigo.com and Delicious.com work similarly whereby you can annotate, tag, and share bookmarks with other members of the site. The site provides a downloadable toolbar for Firefox, Flock and Internet Explorer web browsers for online browsing and interaction. For other browsers, including Safari, it provides a bookmarklet similar to the toolbar but not quite as feature rich.
  • so accustomed now to using the highlighter in Preview and Diigo
  • I want that same feature in Mail
    • Graham Perrin
       
      As Mail.app uses WebKit, so something like this may be possible.

      However: the simple act of 'filing' a message — moving it from one mailbox to another — could be enough to break the reference point upon which a highlight might rely.

      I wonder how Qu-s handles references to messages that move.
    • Bakari C
       
      So are you saying this could be developed as a plug-in for Mail? I wonder what would it fake for Apple to actually incorporate this feature?
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I'll discuss more openly at http://tinyurl.com/yfkvh6e

    Bakari Chavanu wishes for a highlighter pen to work in Mail in Mac OS X. I like that idea.
