Diigo is a reading assistant that allows you to create your own online research library, so both bloggers and those working with remote teams will find a tool to create shared knowledge repositories.

An interface that adapts to the texts

The group will be able to access the information at any time and from anywhere and add annotations.

Getting Started with Diigo

Once you download the program from its official page, you will notice that the platform offers the bookmarklet tool (Diigolet), and when you click on Diigolet you will see the toolbar at the top right of the web page. And this is where you can use the different functions of the environment to highlight text with different colors and add Sticky Note to insert annotations.

Sharing and Annotations

From the Bookmark or Read Later button you can select text, and from the Share button you can share articles. But if you want to share annotations, you must select the Get Annotated Link option, and in this way the group will be able to see summaries and links, but you will not be able to add or modify the content.

The Benefits of Diigo

This powerful notepad offers a very good alternative to Delicious and Evernote, because it adds a social component far superior to its competitors.

Diigo is a free program available for all web browsers, Android and iOS mobile devices. In its free version there are ads, but in its commercial versions we are free of them.
