What a shame to discover the bookmarking service we had organized has apparently been abandoned. The service was called Connectedy and had the advantages of a simple list of links that could be categorized and searched by keyword. While we often find what we need on the Internet through our quick searches, I always felt an additional sense of security with our Connectedy account, knowing that I could locate again a useful online resource I had found before. There were many times that I knew I had come across a great site that held the answer to a patron's question, but I could not remember the name of the site. Checking our links, I could recognize the one I needed and save time retrieving the information.
Now that Connectedy is gone, and it appears to be permanently gone, I have begun to rebuild the links at Nevouz. I am also rebuilding our bookmarks on one of the reference desk computers as a backup that can be re-loaded into Netvouz or another social bookmarking service if necessary.
