[ydn-delicious] Can del.icio.us update an existing link automatically?
I apologise in advance if this has been brought up before. So, I change the domain on my website and create an .htaccess file to redirect search engines to my new pages. I use a 301 redirect to achieve this (see [1]). I'm thinking that it would be great if del.icio.us could pick up on this too though and therefore change a user's existing entry (of my website's old bookmark at [2]) accordingly to pick up on my new changes (the domain). This would obviously prevent broken links on del.icio.us (for those using such a redirect). Perhaps even more stuff too? What do you think? I ask this because eventually I will remove the 301 redirect from my old domain.

[delicious-discuss] The Wiki: vandalised or not?
Who is in charge of officially editing the del wiki on Wikipedia? I only ask because one link (my link at [1]) from the old stub page has since been removed by the last editor. Why was this? Does Yahoo not approve of my methods of altering the posting interface? I've actually added the link back now (see [2]), but would at least like an official explanation. I assume that's from you, Joshua?

Sure.

I think the whole point of Wikipedia is that there's no offical editor. The last edit appears to be done by somebody in Japan (but the IP has no reverse address.) I think the skins you made actually look pretty nice (I never saw them before) But could you turn down the paranoia and/or hostility a bit?

[delicious-discuss] Alternative posting GUI for del.icio.us
I've hacked together a minimal, alternative posting GUI for del.icio.us and Firefox 1.5+. Perhaps some users will find the aesthetic pleasing. http://s90215429.onlinehome.us/sjvilla79/blog/2005/12/simplifying-delicious. html Cheers, Scott ___ discuss mailing list discuss@del.icio.us http://lists.del.icio.us/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Hoping you haven't been hit with this question to the point of pain: I'm brandbrandbrand new. Can del.icio.us (and how do you pronounce it aloud, anyway?) suck up all my existing bookmarks on Firefox and IE and Netscape, and deposit them however untidily in my brandspankingnew bookmarks page here? It would save me daysandweeksandmonths. Thx Lisa ___ discuss mailing list discuss@del.icio.us http://lists.del.icio.us/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss
RE: [delicious-discuss] forum for analysis of del.icio.us
There's lots of things del could be. I guess it's up to Josh and the others working on the project to go with what they think is best. I know enthusiastic posts via this discussion group often go unrewarded, so you're not alone in your want to make del just that much better for users.

[delicious-discuss] Tracking del.icio.us feed and bookmark statistical data
Greetings del addicts, I have a theory about del feed and bookmark statistical data and using this within the realms of the whole del social thingamajig to promote user exploration and perhaps even generate new user to user relationships as a result. Basically my idea is based on letting users know about any other del users subscribing to their content (either via their feeds or tags). I propose this might effectively be done via a summary report page or something similar (like a stripped down version of FeedBurner for example). Yes, I guess this is sort of how the inbox system works. But why aren't we able to know who is reading our marks? I know I'd spend more time exploring del for other users (not tags) if those who subscribed to my marks were also holding similar interests (thus marks). I can also see how cool it would be to actually know that any continued input into del would help to generate these new relationships. I mean that's what social computing is all about, right? Yeah, of course there's also the ego thing partly driving my idea. Can't forget that. ;) And lastly, am I correct in saying that del isn't big on the navigation via member type of features yet? Will it ever be?

That would be great, Matt. I've since stopped using your extension since last time I updated Firefox but will be looking forward to trying it out again with the new changes. Thanks for the feedback.

I'm planning to release a new version in the next couple of days anyway (I've added tag autocomplete, among other things) so I'll try to squeeze this in there too. Making a Greasemonkey script to modify the actual del.icio.us interface in this way would be tough, since you'd have to retrieve the bookmarked page via Ajax (well, Ajah really :-) and get the metadata using regular expressions (since Firefox won't give you an HTML DOM of a page that isn't loaded into the browser). One of many reasons why I believe that a Firefox sidebar is the Right Way to deal with tagging webpages...
