DIIGO- BYOL Session at NECC with Maggie Tsai, Anne Bubnic and Vickie Davis.

I wish the add-to-list drop-down menu was alphabetized for easier selection! I've sometimes made duplicate lists in error, because I didn't see the first one. It gets particularly difficult if you participate in more than one Diigo Group.

The Diigo Forum says we should be able to search our tag dictionaries now. But I'm still getting an Error 500 message.

Here is your solution:

Create one common tag for every entry you make (in addition to your other tags). Then, go to group link roll and follow the directions. Where it says "retrieve only these tags" - enter your common tag name.

Diigo will generate the html code for you. It's way cool.

Would it be possible for you guys to put the tag dictionary on the opening screen for Diigo Groups? I can't tell you how many times I've had to help people find it.

As it is setup now, you have to know to click VIEW BOOKMARKS to see the tag dictionary. And even then, you have to scroll quite a distance down the screen to see it on the sidebar.

And that's just not intuitive.

The tag clouds belong in a much more prominent location so that anyone visiting the site can grasp the most popular site topics in one quick and easy glance.... and so contributors can use it more effectively.

The downfall is that when people can't see the tag dictionary, they start making new tags of their own and it gets ugly! I've seen diigo groups with over 2,000 tags because there are so many variants on individual tag words!!!

Valuable web page real estate is given to "related diigo groups" -- information I never use. Making the tag dictionary more prominent would be far more valuable!


Thanks!

My bookmark descriptions are all being cut off since the upgrade. This was never a problem before. No matter how many times I go back and correct the problem, it reappears. When you go to read the descriptions within a group, they are also being cut off mid-sentence!
