[ydn-delicious] Graphs of tag popularity?

2006-10-09 Thread Patrick Hall
Hi, Random idea: I think it would be very interesting to see stock-market-style graphs of which tags are the most popular. Personally, I'd like to compare names of human languages: How does "Spanish" compare to "Español"? "Español" vs "Português"? and so on. But that's just me; I imagine compute

[ydn-delicious] Hierarchy of Bundled Tags

2006-10-09 Thread Eric Gorr
I was wondering if it was possible to create a hierarchy of bundle tags. Let say I have one Bundle Tag call 'Libertarian' and another Bundle Tag called 'Republican'. Can I create a third Bundle Tag called 'Politics' and have it inherit from 'Libertarian' and 'Republican'? Yahoo! Groups L

2006-10-09 Thread Jeff

[ydn-delicious] API Authentication

2006-10-09 Thread Brett OConnor
Hey, have there been any thoughts on expanding on the del.icio.us API authentication scheme? Specifically, what about doing the "shared secret" method between an application and del.icio.us so that no storage / transference of the del.icio.us username and password has to happen? The reason I ask

2006-10-09 Thread Brett OConnor
I agree. del.icio.us is must less an MMOBS (massively multiplayer online bookmarking service) than Digg and reddit. ;) Users primarily focus on aggregating what are the most trusted and useful resources, not just what is hot. True, there is the del.icio.us front page, but beyond that much of the

Yes there is. If you're using Firefox, you can install the Stylish extension. Once on the del.icio.us page, find a pattern (CSS selector) for those elements. All those elemens can be selected with "div.meta a.pop". Easy. Now click on the Stylish icon in the status bar. Choose "write style" > "for
