Advantages of Using Delicious !

1Bookmark 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.

2Share 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.
