Here’s a terrific discovery tool that you can use to find more great resources for learning Portuguese.

del.icio.us is a powerful tool for researching and bookmarking anything!

Looking for a new way to keep track of your bookmarks as well as find great information you never would have come across? Look no further.

del.icio.us is a social bookmarking service that lets you save your bookmarks not in your web browser, but actually on their site, so you can get them from anywhere. On top of that, you can find great sites that lots of people have bookmarked. Here’s an example, a search for “portuguese” on delicious. Pretty cool, huh?

You may have noticed that all the Portuguese Blog posts have a little ‘delicious’ link at the bottom of them, even when you get them in email. Once you have a delicious account (free, of course) , you can save your favorite posts by just clicking that link. By doing this you are also making it easier for people who are looking for the information in that post to find it, which makes your faithful blog writer very happy 🙂

Other more advanced features of delicious include the ability to tag your bookmarks to easily categorize them. Let’s say you are really into Italian, and also skydiving. Well, you could save all your language bookmarks with the tag ‘italian,’ and all your skydiving sites/articles with ‘skydiving.’ Then when you look at your bookmarks, you can sort them with just a click and see only the ‘skydiving’ bookmarks, for example.

Even cooler? Check this out. It’s an RSS Feed of my blog-related bookmarks; if I bookmark a site that relates to Brazilian Portuguese, it will show up in the feed, wow! For those of you unfamiliar with feeds, check this explanation out.

Hope you all enjoy del.icio.us!
