Imagine taking all those quotations directly out and pasting them into papers and research. Powerful! Always, Phil Hi Liz,

It is all everyone is talking about.

I agree on the Microsoft aspects too Joe. This tool, with some more modification, could approach that "all in one" we heard about - at least to a large extent. Always, Phil @Michael and Joe,

I have actively started using it lately and actually have a group and list that I keep updated since I started. Only problems I see for diigo is the fact that you have to install software to use it. This has been a major killer of a lot of good apps. Diigo needs to try to get with Microsoft and Firefox to try to get it as an install option by default. This would open up their user base to more that just us tech geeks. I agree that diigo is a great tool.

I am a Recruiting Professional at Microsoft and have been using Diigo extensively as I am constantly sourcing for talent on from the web. Whether I am surfing the web, sourcing for resumes or conducting competitive intelligence, Diigo allows me to quickly capture relevant data, create annotations, keep it all organized, easily retrievable, simultaneously share (real-time) content with my team, and oh by the way I can do this without my personal computer from anywhere in the world. The days of simply book-marking favorites in a browser (old-school) and creating "bookmarklets" is definitely not efficient. This is especially true if you have 100's (if not 1000's) of favorite sites stored in your current browser. Diigo has vastly simplified how I maintain and share content from the web. For anyone who has not yet tried it, you should check it out. Phil, thanks for the great write-up!

Yes, we are on the threshold of some truly amazing stuff - I just wish it would get here faster rather than us having to sift through all this fluff in order to find it. Always, Phil @ Rob and Matt,

I'm amazed at how the technology is evolving to the point where people can share knowledge so easily. I'll be tracking Diigo because it looks like the wave of the future is here.

Moreover the well designed user interface makes it useful for as well elementary bookmarking and note taking as for professional annotating and documentation purposes. I expect that these features will soon be widely recognized.

TC did not do it justice but RWW and Webware did nice posts that reflected what the platform is capable of. I am like you Matt, if I had not tested Diigo from the start, I may have never tried it unless someone really got my attention. Thanks Always, Phil @ Alina and Matt,

This (and the pics) helped a lot. I'm one of those "learn and study before using" guys, so this solidified my resolve to give it a shot. Thanks! MK Phil,
