TechCrunch reminds us that Yahoo said nine months ago that it was working on a new version of Delicious, but we've still seen nothing, other than a hint in January that it might be ready soon and a covert trial. Delicious founder Joshua Schachter has been moved onto another project, they say.
I've become increasingly reliant on Delicious to try and organise the huge amount of browsing I do each day, but it hasn't changed since I started using it two years ago. Is this a general takeover-induced malaise?
I'm what might be called a heavy linker, but I'd love more integration between my RSS reader and my bookmarking account. I don't think there's really any need to go through the browser at all, much of the time. I have 80 or so feeds and trawl them every day, queuing links up in the browser behind and adding most of those to Delicious.
It's easier when a feed includes full posts, but I still have to open the post in a browser to add it to Delicious. I really need a Delicious bookmarks button inside Newsfire. Can't see that happening though - Newsfire is notoriously not open to discussion...
