1.0 INTRODUCTION

Delicious (formerly del.icio.us) is a social bookmarking web service that allows you to tag, save,

manage and share Web pages all in one place. When many of us come upon a web page that we

like, we bookmark it, which leaves a link in our browser so we can find the page easily again. If you

use the Internet Explorer browser this is called a Favourite. When using Mozilla Firefox it is called

a Bookmark. Social Bookmarking is a way of sharing your browser’s bookmarks with anyone. One of

the most popular social booking sites is Delicious (delicious.com).
