Delicious

[michelel72]

So, I'm not on Twitter or Facebook; I don't watch live TV or most news shows; I don't visit most news sites. I watched DVR shows last night instead of rechecking my LJ flist. So I only found out about Yahoo! planning to shut down Delicious about an hour ago. After a goodly long panic, though, I found that Delicious is going to try to keep the site up.

Maybe it won't work, but I'm crossing my fingers. Because I'm not a hardcore user, but I have a few thousand bookmarks there, and their tagging system is exactly what I want, and I've been putting together a huge project since about May and that project is only about halfway done.

Don't leave me, Delicious!

I was superbummed when I found out about it as well. I need my delicious! It's possible to back up your bookmarks in settings. Supposedly with tags and tall, although I'm not sure if that's actually true.

I'd been wondering what the deal was with your tags (I've been peeking since you can still be counted on to bookmark fresh SGA meat :)

Yeah, I didn't really anticipate just how many tags this project would add! (You've probably noticed, but while the Y-tagged entries are all over the map for all three series, stuff I've read or mean to read for SGA gets the Verse:SGA (http://www.delicious.com/michelel72/Verse%3ASGA) tag ....)
