With more than a million registered users bookmarking and tagging their favorite sites, del.icio.us has long been one of the best sites to patronize if you’re looking to check out what’s hot on the web for any given topic. Here are 3 hand-picked tools which will make your del.icio.us experience a more tasty one!
1. The best way to search through your del.icio.us account
Even with tagging, there’s only so much you can do to properly describe all your bookmarks, so you can find them again some time in the future. Delizzy is a free service which addresses that issue by searching through all the actual bookmarked pages (not just its description) thus helping you make perfect sense of your online bookmarks.
2. How to send yourself bookmarks in the future
Tag any del.icio.us bookmark with "tagmindr" as well as a date, then you’ll get a reminder via RSS. What could you use it for? Well, for example – if you come across any pages with nice gifts for a birthday for instance, you could just bookmark it and get yourself reminded about that site closer to the date. All brought to you for free by Tagmindr.
3. How to stream bookmarks live to your browser
Del.icio.us is a very dynamic site where activity is constantly happening. Del.icio.us spy is a free service which gives you a glimse of the live activity by giving a constant live stream of whatever people are bookmarking. Not only that, you can also filter the live stream to selected topics, and play a notification sound to alert you when a particular topic gets bookmarked, so you can basically run this in the background and only refer to it when you need to.
