Great post Nate

I love the del.icio.us rss feeds. I use them on my business website and have been getting great feedback from visitors about the timely and informative info.

Wow, that’s a really, really good idea. Thanks for pointing it out! I admit I’m still wrapping my head around what’s possible with tagging and other forms of metadata, but clear examples help me get going.

Hi Nate, I’m using the same technique as described here:
http://www.hybernaut.com/bdv/personal-delicious.html

Joshua has also said that he wants to add a ‘for:username’
tagging convention to del.icio.us which would allow you to
drop something in another user’s inbox. This wouldn’t be a
replacement, as the technique you describe uses del.icio.us
as a backend for hosting a linkstream for someone who doesn’t
have a del.icio.us account.

Note that this technique works well to create linkstreams
for groups. If members of a group post with a common tag,
then any member of the group can read the linkstream via RSS.

Keep on linkin!

Hey Nate,

I think the technique presents itself as a solution rather neatly, so I’m not demanding attribution here. I just meant
to say that it’s a solution that presents itself readily, and it doesn’t require any development work–it’s a latent feature of the del.icio.us infrastructure.
