CPL 2.0 Delicious

I spent about 30 minutes poking around in Delicious. I had done a couple to brief explorations before, but did not find it to be very useful to me. Having now spent more time there I feel more comfortable with the site, but unfortunately the content is mainly related to BSSS and I work in the Arts department. I also tried to get to the Calgary Public Library Favorities area on the Delicious site without using the link from the CPL website, or the link provided. I used the "Search Delicious" box and entered "Calgary Public Library" but the results did not include CPL favorites.

I did find the options to be helpful, particularily the option to get the tags in a list rather than in the "cloud" format, which I find busy looking. And being able to display a brief description of the target site is useful. The site "Cufts", which I was not aware of before will also be useful for some customer questions.
