Del.icio.us and Squidoo

I've been trading emails and comments with Beth from Beth's Blog and posted this comment a minute ago... figured I'd post it here as well. In response to "I'm enjoying reading his blog - lots of useful posts here. I'm also noticing that he has set up a tag called lls on delicious and this relates to a brief presentation I need to cracking on. Marc, can you tell me a bit more about how you using this tag? "

We've set up lots of tags that relate to our mission and fundraising program. We've been experimenting with them within our message boards and emails - the vision is that the "group" can collaborate together to create a much more robust and complete set of articles and resources in one place. We continue to experiment and play with tags, I've been using them for a few months in conjunction with our experiments on Squidoo to combine tag RSS feeds directly into our lenses.

I'm also looking into extending our content RSS feeds with tags as well, but we're not quite there yet. You can see all of our feeds and iTunes links at

Some links on Del.icio.us and Squidoo.

Not sure of the net effect quite yet - but we've had 102 visits to the Team In Training lens and lots of email traffic from folks liking the lens.

One nice benefit is that because these resources are off our "official" sites - I can have a little more flexbility in presenting content and experimenting.
