Social Bookmarking Explained (Video)
Note: this is a short video explaining how to bookmark, tag, and share links with others in social bookmarking tools, such as del.icio.us. i am curious how much "sharing" actually takes place on del.icio.us, and what people's real motivations are for bookmarking URLs.

50+ Firefox Add-ons For Security and Privacy
Note: Security flaws in Firefox are making headlines today, with two new exploits appearing on the scene. While these issues are best fixed with a soon-to-be-released patch*, we were inspired to look at the wider issue of keeping your Firefox browser secure. We present a plethora of security extensions for Firefox, followed by those that will keep your private data….private. Obviously you shouldn’t install these all at once

circaVie
Note: they advertise themselves as a flickr but for timelines. pretty interactive, but you cannot see multiple time scales to get an idea of how long the timeline is or where activity is greatest. for this, check out the simile timelines (http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/) -- these are really fantastic timelines!

A Mashable Guide to Faster Web Surfing
Note: But that’s not the only tool that can speed up your web experience: over the last 17 days, Google Web Accelerator has saved me about 1.8 hours of download time. While that might not seem like much, it’s approximately 38 hours per year, or roughly a day and a half. From changing your DNS settings to blocking advertising, here’s our guide to faster web surfing.
