Search Engines verses Social Bookmarking Sites

Write a blog post comparing the use of a social bookmarking site such as Delicious with a search engine such as google, to find relevant information on a popular topic.

The topic is: Fashion Trends 2014


1.  How many of the results are the same on the first page?

Google:
Displayed 12 and all 12 were different

Delicious:
Displayed too many to count, and all were different

2. Which set of results do you find more reliable?

Google is more reliable to me. Google has a research team that gathers information. Delicious is a gathering of all or any of the world population, and is based on what they find trending.

3. Which are more useful?

Delicious was more useful to me. Google only offered clothing fashions. Where as Delicious offered hair fashions, red carpet fashions, fashions in decor, shoes, make-up, savings, head wear, accessories, and more.

4. Which are more current?

Google is more current. Some of the bookmarks on Delicious had been posted several months ago. They were, however listed in order of earliest to latest. Google trended for 2014 as asked for in the search.

Feed Readers (RSS)

The benefits of RSS feed readers. They allow you to control your content. You the subscriber chooses what you want to stream to your feed. It also allows you to view various content at one time. The drawbacks are some you must download, and sometimes feed readers change hands. This can change content, layout, and subscriptions.

A company that uses RSS to keep their employees and partner abreast of its changes and company new is IBM. IBM offers info to Partners on it holdings, Software updates, and new products that they are working on. I found it simple to use and informative.

Difference between features in Blogger & WordPress

The main differences that I've notice with Blogger(B'er) and WordPress(W/P) are the languages available, domain name, image storage and iPhone app features.

Languages B'er offers only 50 languages, while W/P offer 120+ languages. 

Domain names are transferable for free through B'er, but you have to pay for this with W/P. 

Image storage: B'er give you 1GB free with images under 2048x2048 not being counted against your 1gig. W/P gives you 3 GB with the option to buy more. 

iPhone app: the B'er app. offers 4 options. Post, new post, settings and view blog. W/P offers these and several more such as stats, notifications, pages, and other customization options.
