1. Highlighting - I do this in my head anyway, but I love love love being able to highlight directly on a webpage. I don't understand why I'm enjoying it so much, but it's like a great part about paper things has finally manifested in my digital world in a beautiful way.
2. Bookmarking - I know I could bookmark using Google's built in bookmarking function, but somehow that seems cluttered, and I like to bookmark pages on my browser that I visit a lot, not an article for school. I don't want it filled in automatically while I'm typing. idk.
3. Saving Pages - I can save all those little articles that I'm just browsing for background info. Now they don't just become closed tabs lost in the ethereal world of my half-memory. Normally I disregard pages that aren't rich with helpful stuff. This way I'll be able to look at a lot of little things to build a bigger picture.

I think this is a great tool for academic research. I was thinking of making a wiki, and that might be better for further organizing information, but for right now I'm mostly trying to just round up a lot of information and highlight the heck out of it. Diigo is great for this.
