Right now it's aimed at staff - hence the Dewey bundles. I'm not so sure I'd use Dewey for a patron page - but then, patrons who don't want Dewey can just hide bundles. One of my favorite aspects of del.icio.us is its agility. As you mentioned above, the amazing simplicity of del.icio.us is appealing too - I got my most tech-phobic staff member to start tagging and posting in 5 minutes. She has maintained a rolodex of useful websites for years, and pledges to convert it all to del.icio.us before she retires in December. I’m the creator of the del.icio.us/SanMateoLibrary page.
