Tips for Using Favorite Resources Wisely

Posted by christine on May 12, 2010 7:25:30 PM

You can bookmark websites directly within the community or install the "Add to Thinkfinity" button to your browser to make bookmarking easy all the time.

 

Top Tips:

  • Before creating a new bookmark, Search the Community (at the top right of the site) to see if it's already been created. If so, simply select it to add to your favorites.
  • When creating a new bookmark, create a descriptive title and use tags so that other can find it when they search.
  • Go to Browse All > Favorite Resources to discover top favorites of the week, month, and year.
  • When bookmarking a personal page, mark it as private.

 

To bookmark within the community:

  • Select the Create New tab in the yellow toolbar.
  • Select Favorite Resources.
  • Enter the URL and click Next.
  • Enter a descriptive title, notes, and tags, and choose Save.
  • Note: If you would like the bookmark to be private from the community, make sure to check Make this Favorite Resource Private.

 

To bookmark using the "Add to Thinkfinity" button:

  • Select the Create New tab in the yellow toolbar.
  • Select Favorite Resources.
  • Select the Install the button link in the blue box near the top of the page. This will create a link in your browser.
  • Now you can add bookmarks whenever you find a great site—just click on the link in your browser.
