Using whatever software or tool you think appropriate, record the following information about those sites:
URL.
author,
institution,
blurb/ summary / screen shot (this can be a direct copy of an appropriate abstract or introductory paragraph on the site: but make sure you record and reference it as such)
Again, using any useful software you have downloaded, or utilising your existing software, record this information on your computer in the way that you think will be most useful to you in terms of preparing for your third assignment (that is, in terms of how easy you will find it to access, retrieve, understand, contextualise and recall why you saved it - and with what!).
Record this information in your learning log, and also detail how you saved this information, what software you used and why.
For this task, I downloaded Bookmark Buddy. It downloaded really quickly and I had it running in no time. I firstly saved 3 bookmarks as instructed. I did this by creating a new folder in Categories. It was then a matter of fetching the url bookmark from the browser and adding it as a bookmark. I then found how to make notes and save the information. I think this is an especially useful tool for this subject in that you can make notes to refresh your memory later on. It also tells you the url, when you accessed the site, the number of times you accessed the site along with your 'rating' and comments.
The only downside to this is that its on a 20 day trial.
