什么是Diigo？Diigo是“Digest of Internet Information, Groups and Other stuff”的缩写，当你在网上浏览的时候，你可以对你认为重要的信息和文章段落进行高亮标注甚至对其增加一个你的批注，看，现在圈阅文章也不是纸媒介的专利了。 而当你对这些信息进行批注和高亮标示的时候，这些信息可以自动的选择加入到你的收藏里，而加入到你收藏的这些信息不仅仅只是一个收藏夹的效果，同时还可以分享给其他人，这些信息以及你的批注可以分类并通过Diigo Toolbar进行搜索，他人也可以对这些信息进行评价（又一个social bookmark?），你也可以很方便的通过Diigo Toolbar将你的信息发送到BLOG上去。作为一个web2.0服务，Diigo同样也支持tags。 我的一个朋友曾经几次推荐这个服务给我，但是我一直因为要安装toolbar而没有使用（我不喜欢在我的Firefox上安装工具栏），然而Diigo有一个Diigolet我以前没注意到，这个小东西应该只是一个js文件，只要把它拖进你的bookmark toolbar就可以了，一点也不影响美观。在你浏览网站的只要点击这个按钮，就会弹出一个Diigo的信息栏，通过这个信息栏你可以使用Diigo所有的基本功能。

Diigo is an incremental evolution in human-information interaction. It combines web annotation, which I’ve written about several times, with the social construction of knowledge. It embraces tagging and social bookmarking, as many now are, and extends it to the next step, social annotation. Diigo’s online service approach addresses several problems of web browsing. First, how do I preserve this information I’ve found on the web? You bookmark it. But what if the page moves or is removed? With Diigo, when you bookmark, a copy of the page is saved on Diigo’s servers. Now that I’ve found and saved the page, how do I interact with it? Our model is how we interact with paper documents; We highlight and we make notes. Diigo enables you to both highlight and add notes. That stuff is great, but it gets better. Diigo allows you to make your annotations public. A user of the service see’s the public annotations of other Diigo users. In the future, Diigo will allow the creation of groups. With Google’s PageRank and with social tagging, we find information by the wisdom of the crowd, by word-of-mouth. With Diigo it is now easier than ever to share our collective thoughts on that information-our interpretations, extensions, criticisms and associations. Bringing us full circle, Diigo allows you to tag your bookmarks, and see the tags of other Diigo users. More help finding the information, the comments, and then adding your own. It’s a positive feedback loop.

Diigo rocks, web annotation is here Filed under: General Web annotation — Josh @ 6:46 am After a few monts of use now, Diigo has replaced any other methods of bookmarking. I don’t use Firefox bookmarks anymore. I only us del.icio.us if I want a non-browser interface to my book marks. In my last post about Diigo I said I liked it but I’d post my complaints next post. Since then they’ve fixed everything I was going to complain about. The interface for editing your bookmarks used to be clumsy and hard to find, but they’ve totally remedied that. I was going to complain that the dispay of your tags was sad and ask if we could get a display of our tags as a tag cloud. Before I got the chance to suggest it, I logged in and found I had that option. I’m really liking Diigo and finding it useful. I am printing fewer hard copies of articles. I used to print copies to highlight and annotate them. I’m doing more and more of my highlighting and annotation on Diigo. My primary constructive criticism is that it would be nice to have some non-browser interfaces to the data. For example, the option that del.icio.us gives you to embed a tag cloud of your del.icio.us tags in any web page. That kind of functionality would make Diigo indespensible to me.
