I don't really like ratings -- why would you want to bookmark something
that isn't good? But the general case where you are researching a bunch
of things, sometimes you wish to achieve completeness within the
category and then note the actual resources that were good. Perhaps just
a gold star next to the items you think are good? I dunno.

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 way del.icio.us works is
focused on RETURNING to your bookmarks long after you've saved
them.
I hope that del.icio.us continues to promote this idea, because
ultimately it makes del.icio.us matter more than those other two
guys. :D

I second that. Never ever think of introducing rating of
tags/bundles/links. People will at first waste time and energy rating
links, then realize what they've been doing, and curse del.icio.us for
the waste of time and energy. Best not to put any "collaborative"
feature apart from the existing "subscribe" and "network".
Simple, clean, effective. Not a feature-rich energy sink.
Regards,
Joe.
