The Job of Organizing

While social bookmarking sites like Diigo, Delicious, and Google Bookmarks are great for the individual user.  Your information is cataloged in a way that makes sense and works for you.  I like to go to my Diigo account and see if I have found anything along the way that will aid my current search, but this list is limited, no matter its worth to the user.  These services lend themselves to finding others with common interests and ideal for small groups of people searching for related information, but I do not feel that this is going to replace the universal information cataloging system.  Librarians can certainly send their patrons along this path of personal organization, but in no way can this substitute for Mr. Dewey’s tried and true method.
