Diigo



=A Brief Introduction to diigo:=

Diigo is an online network designed to help you organize your research, it’s specially designed to turn your online resources into your own personal library, by allowing you to make sticky notes and highlight documents online without ever saving them to your desk top or printing them. Your diigo can be accessed from any computer connected to the internet meaning no need for flash drives and taking up inbox space. Having Diigo lets you access another world of the web. You will see public highlights of sites by other Diigo users. There are 3 view modes, all (view all highlights and stickies), private (view only your highlights or stickies) and disable (no view of any highlights or stickies).
