Lately I've been playing around with different geeky things on the web. When Bane first told me about Del.icio.us I thumbed my nose to it. I thought it was just double work for my bookmarks. Then one day I decided to reorginize my bookmarks. Talk about a nightmare. I am a total packrat and saving links is no exception. I had over 1600 links to go through, and over half of them ended up being dead links. Del.icio.us started looking real good to me about a third of the way through. Instead of searching through folder after folder to guess where I put a link I am able to click on my Del.icio.us page and search through terms. For instance: When I bookmarked iLL WiLL PreSS I used the terms "flash funny humor animation". That way I can find it by selecting anyone of those or a combination. It also shows how many other people linked that site.

I have only linked about 410 of my bookmarks. Some of the ones I left off are just silly sites I'll probably go through and delete the next time I get a wild hair up my ass. Oh yeah, and I left off some of my porn links. I'm selfish. Deal with it. :P
