This is already the case and, unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be
a means to remove links in your "links for you" view... so they linger
there.

Re: [delicious-discuss] bloglines having problems with delicious feeds?

2006-02-03 Thread Mike Nowak
I contacted Bloglines a while ago too and thought that maybe they were
being throttled. I've been having the same problems for weeks now.
They responded that they were working with del.icio.us to try to solve
the problem -- don't know if they actually were.

Re: [delicious-discuss] A tag that combines descriptors?

2005-12-22 Thread Mike Nowak
Tag intersections already do this, in a way.

If you tag something "science fiction", and you want to find something
marked "science" and "fiction", then you just look at

http://del.icio.us/tag/science+fiction

As far as I'm concerned, this makes it more accurate since it'll not
only show up as "science+fiction" but "science" and "fiction" too,
which is a small but useful difference.

All that tags for you, perhaps, but not necessarily for every other
user. Personally, I like it better less cluttered.

Re: [delicious-discuss] Deleting bookmarks not working?

I just deleted a pair of accidentally posted links, so it's working
here. Might just be a cache issue.

Not to me specifically, but I would imagine that the ability to drop
links into random people's inboxes would be very prone to abuse.
