Just started a "social bookmark" set on del.icio.us (named, of course, madeoutofpeople. It's an interesting system. Perhaps a useful way to save bookmarks--I haven't decided yet.
Awkward interface for tagging and categories: you don't know how other people have labelled something until you've already added it; you can't easily surf stuff under a given tag when you are on someone else's page.
What I like about it is the multi-partite, time-coded graphs linking people to categories to content. Would love to throw it into JUNG and start looking at the evolution of topics and categorization...
