Comments on: del.icio.us: from good to great http://www.alexandrasamuel.com/general/delicious-from-good-to-great-2 with Alexandra Samuel Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:12:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: codemonkeys http://www.alexandrasamuel.com/general/delicious-from-good-to-great-2#comment-911 codemonkeys Sun, 12 Jun 2005 09:43:57 +0000 http://alexandrasamuel.com/blog/20050604/delicious-from-good-to-great-2/#comment-911 I've been an early adopter to social bookmarking and have been using del.icio.us for absolutely ages. Although I find it hugely useful, and important for my day to day internet use, I find the interface boring. It's functional, but it isn't pretty. Sites like Blinklist and Blogmarks have much nicer interfaces. I have created a simple tool that helps me find bookmarks easily from del.icio.us, blogmarks, blinklist and jots. You can access this tool at <a href="http://www.gataga.com/" rel="nofollow">www.gataga.com</a>. Hope you guys find it useful for new link discovery.

I have found your articles and posting on tagging and social bookmarking very valuable. I created a <a HREF="http://beth.typepad.com/beths_blog/2005/06/alexandra_says_.html" rel="nofollow">comic</a> in your honor and hope that you're getting more sleep! Alexandra,

While I agree that I love the social bookmarking aspect of del.icio.us, I find blinklist.com even more useful to manage my personal bookmarks since it addresses many of the concerns you listed about the user interface. Looks like blinklist was just launched, which is why they don't yet have some of the basics down (i.e. RSS feeds for every tag, etc.) but once that gets sorted out, it could be a very neat tool.
