    Mandatory: an iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad (I would argue a tablet in general). "It's getting to the point where there are a number of professions students are going into where knowing how to use technology is required."

    Includes a comparison chart (Diigo, Delicious, Browser) and a high level overview of Diigo (including screenshots). According to Ruffini, Diigo "fosters research-sharing and collaboration in new ways.
