Abstract

How widespread is social bookmarking? Or do people just google to find something they've found before? In November/December 2008 we conducted a survey of re-finding behavior in the IU community. This talk presents the results of the survey, highlighting differences between students and other groups of users. Technology use surveyed went beyond bookmarking to include personalization of OneStart or SecondLife and subscription to listservs and RSS feeds. These findings should be of interest to anyone creating websites in the IU community.
