Advantages of Using Delicious !
1
 Bookmark any site on the Internet, and get to
it from any computer, anytime, and
anywhere.

Instead of having different bookmarks on every
computer, Delicious makes it easy to have a single set of
bookmarks kept in sync between all of your computers.
Even if you're not on a computer you own, you can still
get to your bookmarks on the Delicious website.

 Share your bookmarks, and get bookmarks in
return.

If your friends use Delicious, you can send them
bookmarks that they can check out the next time they log
in. Of course, they can do the same for you. As you
explore the site and find interesting users, you can use
the Subscriptions and Network features to keep track of
the Delicious tags and users you find most interesting.
