This is the equivalent of a private bookmark, right? I tried it, bookmarked a site, added the for:my name tag and saved it. I went back to del.icio.us, logged out and then tried to access the http://del.icio.us/for/myname website and it said I had to be logged in to view it. Excellent! Can you go

It doesn't look like they're completely private. If you bookmark something for:yourself and log out you won't be able to see it at del.icio.us/for, but you'll be able to see it at the main del.icio.us page. --- Joel Barrett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is the equivalent of a private bookmark,

We had this conversation several times before but it's always good to discuss important points. Yes, Delicious is a social bookmarking service but it is also a personal bookmarking service as well. Many of the bookmarks I have are internal only links. I can't even let someone know the title of the
