Delicious: Del.icio.us is a social bookmarks manager. It allows you to easily add sites you like to your personal collection of links, to categorize those sites with keywords, and to share your collection not only between your own browsers and machines, but also with others.

Del.icio.us has nice integration with Firefox browser and lots of API.

Numerous authors have written about usefulness of del.icio.us including an article on xml.com

If we develop a mechanism (including javascripts) to add perlmonks bookmarks to del.icio.us with a specialized tag (ex.. perlm or perlmonks), adding keywords, it could be a nice utility to access the finest of perlmonks nodes easily whenever necessary. If we practice adding our favorite nodes to del.icio.us reguarly, within very short time we can create a useful library of useful nodes with searchable tags. It can also take some search load off our website.

    There's no need for a tool. Just tag bookmarks with perlmonks and the standard del.icio.us mechanisms will do the rest.

    For Firefox integration, you want the Foxylicious extension instead.

    But if you still feel you must write code for this, go ahead.

      A simple mechanism could add the tag 'perlmonks', $node_id, $date, $author etc for you, so you don't have to add it. It would be easy from search point of view.

        So what do you want to achieve? What you explain doesn't sound like directed bookmarking, more like broad-sweeping archival; how does this differ from using Super Search?

      Hmmmzzz. Can this Foxylicious also add bookmarks to del.icio.us?

      There will be more support for groups in Delicious in the next week or two.
