So I played around on Del.icio.us and wasn't really overwhelmed by it. I searched for various library terms and such and a lot of the links I found were no longer valid, which is always frustrating. I'm sure that if you are someone who tends to bookmark a lot of sites then this is good for you. I am not that person. If what I want isn't a blog (which would then go into Feedly where I would bookmark it there) then I use Pinterest to save it for future reference.
I can see this more as something that would be used by students doing research. However, I don't see it as something I would use in elementary. Our research is much more limited to what our students are capable of and something like this would be extremely confusing and crazy to teach to them! But for secondary students, this is a way to get them away from Google as their main search tool for research. They could easily set up accounts and save the results of their searches for future reference.
