Finally created a Delicious account. My open tabs now exceed practicality. I can’t work through enough projects simultaneously to hold my active tabs under 50. It’s crazy. Posting to Delicious, I am hopeful, will allow me to immediately dump resources I am not actively using in favor of fewer open tabs.
Ultimately, I’d like to be able to fulltext search blog links, but I can’t find a service that offers that functionality. Google has a service to search your browsing history, but it requires a Firefox extension and thus doesn’t work with Opera. Google also lets you search posts marked as favorite in Reader, but that’s not especially useful either.
Maybe one day I’ll combine the Delicious API with some Ruby to pull down RSS feeds of blog URLs I have tagged and shovel them at Lucene for indexing. No time in the immediately future for such a project, though.
Having to expose Opera’s Personal Toolbar so I can get at the Delicious bookmarklet vexes me. A waste of about 50px of screen realestate on a display with only 800px in height kind of sucks. I’m going to try a plugin that takes advantage of Opera custom button functionality.
