I've had my own personal del.icio.us account for quite a while now and can kick myself for not taking advantage of it all these months. It's great. I have numerous sites bookmarked on my laptop and desktop so it will take a while to set those all to del.icio.us, but it will be well worth the effort. Now, I have an account that I have associated with my blog: I am ForGreaterKnowledge on del.icio.us.
The benefits for librarians and researchers is clear. I can imagine using del.icio.us or something like it to bookmark and tag all the sites that are frequented to answer questions for patrons. Having access to them from any computer is a tremendous advantage and being able to share those sites with others creates even greater value.
