Yes, thank you Ros, I have used del.icio.us for a number of months and
this weekend I discovered diigo which appears to be very similar but
with more of a soical network and groups attached - I do like it.

I dont understand why everyone in my gmail account was sent the
message and I feel very embarrased :(

I am a mere teacher, I have no means of making a profit from much
else, and love my use of lists such as this one - I don't know if I
clicked something by accident which sent out the email but I am having
trouble with spyware at the minute hence have blamed that.

thank you for your patience. I hope to contribute to a greater extent
to this list next semester. I have not taught year 11 IT for 5 or 6
years and have appreciated the support of this group but have now
gained confidence and will make up for this incident by contributing
more next semester.

Best wishes
Gail
