diigo site

Here is a link to my Diigo site.

A web browser add on is a program that is integrated into the browser that provides additional functions into your preferred browser. I discovered that I have used several basic add ons before mostly for social networking sites such as Facebook or search engines like Google and they are very convenient for everyday use navigating through the internet. Diigo helps make things more accessible and easily at hand when you want to pull something up, especially occasionally visited sites.

I am addicted to checking the weather, so I have a weather add-on that I am checking constantly to see what should be wearing when I walk out the door.

What I did:
-registered for Diigo and installed it on my computer. Then I started building a library by adding websites.

What I learned:
-that by using this you can have all your most used websites right at hand so its once click away.

How can you use the new learning?
-We can save our most used websites on the computers at school so students can get into the website themselves.
