I guess the olden days of hording your links is a thing of the past. What I do like about the SOCIAL side of this is that you can open up your links to your team (so that no administrator can claim you are not a team player) and there is no spoon feeding involved.
Now if they could come up with a way to notify you when your link has been updated and the url changed ... that would be cool.
This is great way to avoid the BAD sites the kids happen upon when searching through web pages. You can create a set of safe links that the children can access to complete the assignment you have given them. Once I had the children looking up 'rocks and minerals' and lets just say that it should not have to cost you $9.95 a minute.
Here are my two links:
http://www.blogger.com/home
http://www.aft.org/
For the blogger site I tagged it with the following words; blog, blogging, social
For the aft site I tagged it with the following words; teacher, union, help
