It took me a while to warm up to del.icio.us, but I can understand it's popularity as a social bookmarking site and see how it could be addictive. It's fun to follow the tag trail and see where it leads - if you have the time. I can see the advantage of having a shared reading list: I think it would be helpful for reference to have a ready-made list for students who are doing research and HR could use it to link other users who are doing family history research. It's sort of like letting someone else do the work and reaping the benefits; but, of course you can share your own finds.
I didn't really care for the Otter Group video but that was mainly because of the narrator's voice: I did enjoy the one from Common Craft. I looked at the LPLS del.icio.us bookmark list and looked at a few tags under Learning 2.0. I noticed that library is near the bottom of the list in terms of size but at least it is in the tag cloud of most popular tags.
