After running it for a while open to the public it appears to be running relatively bug free so this is the invitation to the Slashdot crowd. The code is entirely open and the content is cc licensed, so I’m sure it won’t take too long for folks to cook up some additional tools aside from the blogging feature. For those not familiar the meme is social bookmarking, which is basically a service to share bookmarks publicly instead (or in addition to) only within your browser. There are lots of other additional benefits, but that’s the gist of it. More details here and here.”

Wh.ats u.p wi.th th.e na.me.s? - by aussie_a (Score: 4, Insightful) Thread
I haven’t RTFA because letting the entire world know what my bookmarks are, without an option to let the world know what SOME of my bookmarks are doesn’t appeal to me.
Now I could modify delirious to have this feature but I don’t have enough time and incentive. But something I do find odd are the names. I’ve always thought the del.ici.ous name was odd, but this is ridiculous. Is there something in social bookmarking that requires things to have periods in the middle of everything? Or is delirious just copying delicious?

I don’t understand… - by Icarus1919 (Score: 5, Insightful) Thread
Maybe it’s just me, that’s a possibility, but I don’t understand people’s fascination with these kinds of services. Blogging, bookmark sharing, it all seems to me like a cry for attention from other people. Blogging looks like it could be fun, but I never participated in it because it always seemed as if no one would ever particularly are about my life, and if they did, it would say more about their life than mine. For the same reason, I probably wouldn’t participate in this type of service. I’m not trolling, I simply really do not see the appeal. If I wanted to keep a record of my life, I’d be much more likely to keep a private journal.
