    Comparing Social Bookmarking Services

    The last post about my Procmail Quick Start being bookmarked 300 times at del.icio.us inspired me to look at other social bookmarking services and see how popular the Procmail Quick Start (PQS) is elsewhere. Here's what I found. It seems that del.icio.us is where the nerds hang out and it makes sense that every time I look around for a better bookmarking service, I decide that del.icio.us is the best choice for me, at least for now. Of the alternate bookmarking services I just looked at, Simpy looks the most interesting, especially the link history page, which includes a graph.

    What do you think? What social bookmarking service(s) do you use and why?

    Procmail: Still Popular After All These Years

    My Procmail Quick Start, which started out as part of the Filtering Mail FAQ in 1994, is still popular after all these years. This week its primary URL was bookmarked for the 300th time at del.icio.us. The top of its del.icio.us history page currently looks like this:
    ii.com · Procmail Quick Start: An introduction to email filtering with a focus on procmail by Nancy McGough
    http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/qs/
    this url has been saved by 300 people.
    Thank you to everyone who has bookmarked it, sent me feedback, or participated in Procmail discussions over the years!

    Flock changes the appearance of my del.icio.us web pages

    Now that Flock 1.0 is out, I'm experimenting with using it as my default browser. There are a lot of things I like about it, especially the built-in blog editor, which I'm using right now [*]. I'm not sure if I like the way they've hooked it into del.icio.us, the social bookmarking website, though. Normally when I go to my del.icio.us bookmarks page, I see this:
    your bookmarks | your network | subscriptions | links for you | post

    But now that I've used Flock's built-in "Favorite This Page..." command to post some bookmarks to del.icio.us, I see this:
    your favorites | your network | subscriptions | links for you | post

    Notice the difference? Yuk! I don't want Flock messing around with the appearance of web pages, especially changing words! [**]

    I'm hoping there's a way to fix this -- please let me know if you know.


    [*] I've temporarily edited Flock Preferences > Advanced > Sharing so it looks like this:
    [X] Include "Shared with Flock" text when sharing
    It's nice (and essential to me) that this is configurable, which is not the case in Bleezer.



    [**] Unless I've requested it in the Flock Preferences, e.g. using the minimum font size.
