(or, Why Everyone Everywhere (But Especially People In Fandom Who Read A Lot Of Fic) Should Be Using A Social Bookmarking Site; or, I Told [livejournal.com profile] queenofalostart I Would Write This Up) [edited to reflect changes in del.icio.us, 07.25.06]

it is no secret that i think del.icio.us, a social bookmarking site that uses tags for organization, is just about the best thing in the entire universe. it is also no secret that del.icio.us has changed my life for the better, in terms of everything from being able to find that stargate atlantis story where rodney orders a john as a mail order bride to keeping track of all the best of music lists from this year to being able to sort my thesis research out by viewing other people's bookmarks.

but still, still despite all my preaching, not all of you are using del.icio.us. why not? is it scary? do you just not bookmark enough stuff to make it worthwhile? because i really am telling you: this site will change the way you file information, and it will change the way that you use the internet. i swear.

del.icio.us: a user's guide for the uninitiated, and a collection of helpful hints and tips for users who are already comfortable with the basics )

so. now. go and bookmark, darlings, and tell me your del.icio.us usernames so i can effectively stalk you. (unless i am already stalking you, in which case, please carry on with the good links.) or don't - i am most certainly not the boss of any of you, you don't have to do what i say.

right. now if you'll excuse me, i have some slacking off at work to do.
