ArtLung: Owning my own bookmarks over 20 years ~ 31 Oct 2024

Tue, 26 Nov 2024 18:17:53 +0000

I wrote code (in PHP) to import my old bookmarks. And you didn’t misread that, it’s 28,000 links over the last 20 years. They come from my original links blog, and from Delicious, and from Instapaper, and from Twitter back when I backfilled those shared links into Pinboard, which I then backfilled into my link blog database. It’s a lot of things, but really, it’s straightforward from a programming point of view. It’s a simple POST to the REST API which Linkding provides by default. I have shared most of the code I wrote as a Gist in GitHub. It includes code in PHP to convert exported CSV from Instapaper to a JSON format that my poster code can use. And over the last 2 days and over many hours, every few seconds a link would be posted. And as of now, it’s finished.

Infovore » A Year of Links

I thought it would be interesting to produce a kind of personal encylopedia: each volume cataloguing the links for a whole year. Given I first used Delicious in 2004, that makes for eight books to date.

YouTube's co-founder to bring Yahoo's Delicious to China|Companies|chinadaily.com.cn

The focus now for AVOS, which acquired Delicious from Yahoo in March, will be to improve the bookmark service and bring back its old users while attracting new customers. "The most important thing is to finish the product first," he said. Good luck with that.

The Fans Are All Right (Pinboard Blog)

Tue, 04 Oct 2011 02:52:05 +0000

I learned a lot about fandom couple of years ago in conversations with my friend Britta, who was working at the time as community manager for Delicious. She taught me that fans were among the heaviest users of the bookmarking site, and had constructed an edifice of incredibly elaborate tagging conventions, plugins, and scripts to organize their output along a bewildering number of dimensions. If you wanted to read a 3000 word fic where Picard forces Gandalf into sexual bondage, and it seems unconsensual but secretly both want it, and it's R-explicit but not NC-17 explicit, all you had to do was search along the appropriate combination of tags (and if you couldn't find it, someone would probably write it for you). By 2008 a whole suite of theoretical ideas about folksonomy, crowdsourcing, faceted infomation retrieval, collaborative editing and emergent ontology had been implemented by a bunch of friendly people so that they could read about Kirk drilling Spock.

unique hazards may exist, We can save Delicious, but probably not in the way you think

Mon, 20 Dec 2010 00:39:44 +0000

"An online debate has already begun about various ways that Delicious might be “saved”. As someone who was on the inside for a while and who wants very much to see Delicious live on, I thought I’d chime in"

Packrati.us = Twitter + Delicious

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:09:19 +0000

This is what I wish Delicious had done with Twitter. pinboard.in has this built-in, by the way. "This site provides a simple bookmarking service. We follow your twitter feed, and whenever one of your tweets contains URLs, we add them to your delicious.com bookmarks. Optionally, bookmark URLs in @replies to you. We'll even add a delicious tag identifying the sender if you like."

"Our technical goals are to never lose data, be very fast, and favor boring and faded technologies where possible. A rule of thumb that has worked well for me is that if I'm excited to play around with something, it probably doesn't belong in production."

"+1 for OAuth. This is the sort of thing about which we once said "never again", after the blog posting thingy and retaining user credentials there."

From Delicious to Mozilla at Spindrop

Wed, 27 May 2009 16:05:35 +0000

Welcome aboard, Dave! "Today I said my good-byes to Delicious.com and Yahoo! and tonight I went to the Addons Meetup @ Mozilla to get a sneak peak at what I'll be working on in less than two weeks. ... I'm also happy to be joining an organization where everything is open sourced and available for comment. So I'm hoping to post a lot more on some of the cool tricks I do at Mozilla"

joshua's blog: on url shorteners

Fri, 03 Apr 2009 22:36:53 +0000

"So there are clear benefits for both the service (low cost of entry, potentially easy profit) and the linker (the quick rush of popularity). But URL shorteners are bad for the rest of us.I feel that shorteners are bad for the ecosystem as a whole. But what can be done to improve the situation?"
