Experimenting with Diigo

I've just signed up for Diigo, a true social bookmarking tool in beta. It takes the social aspect of bookmarking a step up from del.icio.us, and has an interface similar to other social sites, such as Facebook.

You can do the traditional social things such as finding friends, seeing what they bookmark, send messages, etc. An aspect of Diigo that I'm looking forward to using is the annotation feature - you can highlight text on the bookmarked page and make notes/comments on the highlighted area. From the social end, you can see what others have annotated on their saved bookmarks, share, and I believe, make comments on others annotations.

Cool! I'll share more once I have a little time to experiment.
