In web 2.0, there is now a tendency to decentralize services and network in with other sites that offer those services.  One service that I think can currently be done better outside MyGiftedLife.org is handling the bookmark (weblink) resources.  I have set up an account on Del.icio.us to handle our bookmarks using their tag system to make resources easier for people to find.

There are two ways to access the MGL bookmarks.  The first is through the link at the top of the page titled Delicious MGL.  This link opens up a new tab or window with the MyGiftedLife Delicious account containing all the weblinks collected and volunteered by our members and friends.

The other method may be more useful to quickly find something under a particular tag.  On the Home page and a few other pages, there is a tag cloud at the bottom of the page.  The tag cloud shows the tags linked to the bookmarks. with the largest tags having the most bookmarks and the smallest having the fewest.  In this way, you can immediately jump to the section you want to look at.

I hope everyone finds this useful, please contact the administrators if you have any problems or ideas.  And if you belong to Del.icio.us yourself, why not add MyGiftedLife to your network and share some of your bookmarks with us?
