The idea of having a web-based repository for web sites is personally appealing since I sometimes lose sites from home to work. I don't quite get the social part of this. It was sort of interesting to see which sites had the most links to them. The tagging for most of what I saw seemed fairly straight forward and what I would expect.
As far as NebraskAccess goes - I really think we need to have some non-librarians come up with tags that mean something to them. I would guess that "databases" doesn't mean much to the average Nebraska college freshman who needs journal articles for a paper.
I do think this would make an excellent tool for teachers or others leading classes to share groups of web sites. i need to play with the networking feature a bit more to figure that out - I am having some of the same problems on Delicious that I was having on Twitter finding other people. I know they are there, but I don't know how to find them because they are using user names that are not their names.
