I mean, it can take HALF A DAY to import your bookmarks from FF or IE - that's insane! Especially considering the 5MB file size limit, which is something that keeps me from using the service anymore. And the use of spaces to separate tags instead of commas is beyond irritating. I don't want to have to WriteMyTagsLikeThis or like_this, it's counterintuitive and fugly looking. It's the features I'm interested in, not the shiny new interface and crappy name change. The new design looks nice and all, but are they going to fix the things that are wrong with the service now?

It's a great way to share industry related information with colleagues, peers and like minds without bugging them with an email or an I.M. As well as for keeping track of articles I want to return to at a later date when I have more time. Personally I'm interested to see what this new release does differently if but I also find the current incarnation works just fine for me.

I was working on a project related to sonic branding. So I was saving some links on the topic. When you save a link it shows you who else has also saved it. So I clicked on a few names related to a shared link and found someone in Germany that had dozens of amazing links on sonic branding, so so much I hadn't found on my own at that point [and I had dozens of sites saved already]. Research = done. I also use it for watching trends by watching what's popular, viewing the recently saved page and noting how many people have saved a specific link. The other big use of the site I have is the subscription feature. You can select tags and have a feed of those tags updated anytime someone saves a page and tags it with "Sonic Branding" or whatever your topic of choose is you will see it. One benefit of the site you should keep in mind is that anything found on the site is there because someone thought it was worth saving - a bot didn't simply find the topic searching the web and add it to search results. If you just want a basic bookmark service [it is still great for that], but the real value in the site only becomes evident if you expect more of it as well.

Then I started using it, got overwhelmed and carried away. Then totally forgot about it for a long while, and rediscovered it. Delicious is a great tool for organizing links without being restricted to one computer. But although the minimalistic interface is not all bad, I would like for yahoo to make a move to innovate a little. I'm sure they're doing their best, but it's sure taking a while... Subscribing to a tag, for instance, will cause you to receive certain links dozens of times, every time it is tagged by anyone. Even if that link is already in your own list! Such kind of things could (and should) be filtered a little to avoid overload. I have several 100's of links over there, but I dare not look at it until they finally begin to improve the service.
