new dlcs

meanwhile I am also in a blogger compose screen that is still new to me though I don't know, since blogger redesign has it been months even a year or more?

dlcs still in hands of youtube founder guys?  yes.  they have a good website.  avos.com

searching dlcs for avos finds my link, to a now defunct page on their site:  A New Flavor…Still Delicious | AVOS | 26 Sept 2011
/so that was a bit over a year ago (year & four mo) and it was 9 months into being in atl
haven't been following since and haven't used dlcs w m frequency

dlcs-others now not working  -- is there a new button for that?  always loved that.   **

can see the 'comments' = notes of others and all of my note on right panel that scrolls, so that's good.

dlcs-post still works but might be a new toolbar button for that?  do not want, probably, a full toolbar or whatever integrated with firefox, do not! want merged with my bookmrks in browser

comments no longer limited to 1000 characters??  good, right? or will I miss that limit? is there any limit now ?? /now showing up as limited to 1000, with countdown. that's fine.

oh and!  is pinboard still mirroring???  yes looks like it is, v good   and love still love that pinboard like old-old-dlcs look

FEEDBACK  - dlcs site forum 

I need to edit my URLs   Some sites prepend {eg,..} source=feedburner/blablabla when linked from Google Reader.  There should be an option to fix the url like the old design.  /y.

Keep the thumbnails   -If this is (re-)implemented, I would prefer for it to be an option, not mandatory. For those of us who primarily bookmark text-only links, thumbnails just serve to clutter up the page and make it less streamlined. For me, the oldest, image-free version of Delicious was the simplest and most useful.

Make the right-hand column collapsible    -yeah, it kind of makes me nervous   // :)

Highlight Text for Descriptions Missing
[fr bookmarklet functionality]


** Where are other "saves" for the same link?   /ie what I call dlcs-Others
-What do the current Admins see as being the purpose of Delicious? What makes it a good site and what distinguishes it from other sites that provide a similar service, like Pinterest or Pinboard? To me, the key factor was the ability to move between users. I could find something I like and then use that to find other users who tagged that thing accordingly. For instance, I like looking for online fiction. Sometimes I want to read about a particular plot device. So, I would find a story I already knew that had that plot device, see which user identified that plot device with a tag, and then look through other things they also tagged as having that plot device. Delicious did that better than any other, similar sites.
-See what others save as links lead to a more curated and therefore trusted set of link. That's how I decide to follow. It's not who they are, it's how they think and what their interests are. From my perspective, this feature is why Delicious is superior to StumbleUpon or Diigo.
