Not delicious!

[castalie]

Dude, is Yahoo going to shut Delicious down? This is bad news if it turns out to be true! So far it's 'just' a leak so who knows what's happening. Delicious is a huge part of my fannish life, I have more than 9,000 links archived over there, mostly fics, all nealty tagged and bundled, and I add a new link pretty much all the time, it can't go! I'm definitely going to keep an eye on the whole thing. Also, exporting everything as soon as I sense danger a bit too close to home. It won't be ideal but it'll be something *nodnod* It'd also suck for all those comms that have their fics linked over there.

And now the vultures are already circling. Yes, I'm looking at you Pinboard! But I am keeping your URL somewhere. In case of emergency. And thinking of checking out Diigo too. Just in case, you know? *clings to her delicious account*

To recover from the fright this news caused me I'm watching this video for the third time, it's just so funny (and fitting too! Those dudes do know us so well it's almost scary lol), Go to sleep : a special message for internet insomniacs. In other words, a message for pretty much all of us? ;-)

Oh and apparently Quick is getting adventurous for the holidays, it's offering a burger au foie gras! I don't know if I'm curious or appalled.

Diigo is free, at least. I checked out Pinboard but 1) it's not free and 2) there's no firefox addon or bundles feature (yet?).

There might be hope, though, if this project comes to life: http://community.livejournal.com/deliciouslymad/18362.html

Also, apparently AO3 offers bookmarking to people who have accounts, but I have no idea how it would work.

J'ai un compte chez eux, faudra que je vois ça.

I knew Diigo from work but I'd never thought of giving it a try (until now). Guess it's always a good thing to look for alternatives.

Ils font chier, quand même !

It's confirmed.

It sucks. Delicious is such an excellent site!!

...well, fuck.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Pretty much my thought!

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

Wow, that's brutal. It's the first I'd heard about it, thanks.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Tell me about it. And you're welcome.

Je n'utilise pas Delicious personnellement, mais quand des gens linkent vers leur compte, ça m'arrive de m'en servir. C'est dommage.

Génial, la vidéo ! Surtout tout peut arriver dans vos rêves. Quelle ironie vu le temps que je passe sur Internet à lire des fics d'Inception. XDDD

Delicious fait vraiment partie des sites que je visite pratiquement quotidiennement. Même au boulot, d'ailleurs, j'avais créé un compte pour ma veille.

Elle est kiffante cett vidéo, je l'adore lol Et elle est tellement vraie ;-)

OMG! I can honestly say that during all my time in France, I never ate at a Quick nor at a McDo. So...that being said: BEURK!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Lol That mix is quite a frightening thought, isn't it?

[whitevanilla.livejournal.com]

I just shared this with my supervisor; she too thought it to be disgusting. lol

She's obviously someone of good taste!
