Post a comment if you know of a absolutely delicious tool to be listed here.
Thank you very much for this post. I was having some issues displaying my delicious links on my site’s footer, and several of your recommendations look good to do just what I want, not to mention the services that help clean the bookmarks up. I have far too many to always stay on top of them, so yes, thanks!!
I’m looking for a “mediawiki” extension (the sw platform of wikipedia) to do a mashup between the wiki pages and a specific delicious content. In other words: having a wiki page, it would be nice to add a tag like “” to retrieve automatically the urls of that user, filtered by tags associated.
Is there anything similar?
thanks
Toni
Some of these links are out of date or link to services that no longer work. You might want to take some time to go through them and clean them out. Still, a very helpful post overall.
Thank you for this great all-you-can-eat buffet. Delicious and satisfying!
I created a sort of delicious/mangolia slideshow player of tags and user saves:

Wectar, a delicious dmoz.org mashup which finds related websites in the pool of dmoz.org listed web sites based on delicious tag informations.

now with enhanced look and feel.
I need a tool that will allow me to control the tags used to bookmark sites. I want to build a list of allowed tags and share this list with other members of my team. When bookmarking a site, I want a pick-list or similar feature with which to select a tag from my list.
Is there a tool that does this? Am I totally missing the entire Social Bookmarking concept with this?
Any help is most appreciated.
Cheers,
Rob
gre.gario.us is no longer an active site, why is it listed here?
http://reednj.com/ is a replacement for the old populicio.us, if anyone still remembers that. It shows the most popular bookmarks grouped by hour/day/week etc.
Nice list, ty.
I’m looking for something for my wordpress blog.
I wanna to export post then import’em to delicious have you got an idea ?
Wow, I just got finished with the Flickr post, and this is equally impressive. I do not think I have ever seen such a great list of Delicious tools
Wow! This is a huge collection of Del.icio.us tools. At first, I thought it was just a plain online bookmarking website but now, I can tell that it’s definitely complex yet very dynamic.
I’ve been using del.icio.us for three months now. It’s my favorite bookmarking service provider. It’s hotter than StumbleUpon.
Do you agree with me?
Bookmarks inSuggest is a new cool service for users of bookmark services. Enter your del.ico.us user name and you will instantly get recommendations, based on like-minded people:
Hello there. My desktop blogging client for OS X and Windows – “Poster” – now includes support for del.icio.us. You can use it to browse and maintain your bookmarks, and easily post them to your blog.

Also, the first tool link (for DeliciousSubmit) on this page is broken.
I wrote desktop software (Simple del.icio.us Manager = SDM) in java to easly managing del.icio.us bookmarks. Please check this web page:
With this software one can type for example: ‘+astronomy -physics’ then it will be found all bookmarks which have ‘astronomy’ tag BUT which don’t have ‘physics’ tag. With ‘+’ and ‘-‘ one can search for exact tag names.
Other example: one can type ‘astronomy !physics’ and it will be found all bookmarks which have in url, description, extended or in tags such word like ‘astronomy’ BUT which don’t have such word like ‘physics’.
Check this program if you like.
Cheers!
AH
For Konqueror there’s also KDelicious: https://www.linux-apps.com/content/show.php/KDelicious?content=72038
Apart from the usual stuff (“Tag this” etc), it can add del.icio.us posts to the Konqueror bookmarks with one click.
Hi, a few days ago I wrote an Opera button/bookmarklet to post links to del.icio.us – there are already some, but I didn’t find one which met my requirements.
My button is simple an does the following:
* opens a small pop-up window
* fills out the URL field with the current URL
* fills out the description field with the current page title
* fills out the notes field with some text that maybe currently selected in the document you want to post
* after posting the pop-up closes itself.
It’s kind of the same behaviour as the Firefox extension provided by del.icio.us.
You could find it at http://goetz.buerkle.org/delicious-opera
Is there any list of websites using del.icio.us in some creative way in addition to this great list of tools?
10x alot for this usefull post and the great comments with all the new resources.
I’ve recently developed SyncBookmarks. It is a PHP script that allows the synchronization of bookmarks between two different bookmarking services, provided that they both support the del.icio.us API (i.e. between del.icio.us and any website based on Scuttle). Also, the script can be used to make backups of any of the configured services.
The link to the script’s page is:
And the link to the script itself is:
(The page is only in Spanish, sorry, but the script itself is fully documented in English).

Hi folks,
I just built a odp/del.icio.us mashup including a finding related websites feature similar yet different from similicio.us While similicio.us goes over user preferences, my mashup uses tag informations for finding similarity.

Really good collection of del.icio.us tools. Is there a tool which spiders a web site, grabs title, grab keywords as tags and post to my del.icio.us account?
I’m searching for such a tool but I could not find any till now.
I like Delicious because it allows me to keep track of links as I share them with friends. But is there a way to have my friends notified when they receive links from me? Some kind of Gmail Notifier or something like that.

hello,
i’d like to know how I could tweak the badge Javascript so that my notes for each bookmarks display on my blog.
I guess i’d have to host the script my self but I dunno where to start.
In fact i ‘d like to make a linkblog based on Delicious
Does anyone know a decent API, that works also with private bookmarks? I have a lot of tags and want to delete a lot of them, rearrange 50%, add descriptions etc. I’ve 350+ bookmarks in my private section – and i don’t want to do this job only by the interface of del.icio.us …
I tried several tools from here (like delicer) but they can’t see my private links.
Is there a way to pull in user tags and bookmarks and save them to a users admin in another website?
the “del.icio.us pioneers – Who keeps posting the most popular links?” link is broken, or the site is no longer operational.
A shame, I’d like to know who these forerunners are.
