son of del.icio.us

Well, that's nice! Two people have posted my "Tales of the Blonde Shikseh" blog on del.icio.us! I wonder if I can find out who they are .... hmmmmmmm.
Well, it turned out to be a lie, but! But! BUT! You can find that out by looking at your bookmarks in del.icio.us (hithertoknown as "thingie" because I'm tired of writing that out). And I had to find something that already had a number of bookmarks to see what it looks like (the counter on my blog had just spazzed and shown me a false count). It will say how many people have that bookmarked and give the entire history of that bookmarking along with the notes people made and how else they tagged it. I went back and changed my tags because I saw better ones than mine. I also looked under some of my other tags ("library") and found a whole bunch of stuff other people thought intriguing on that subject.
This could be a way to search for websites on topics and get a better class of results because they would be sites other people thought "worthy." Or not.

del.icio.us

I've added a del.icio.us button and counter (it only counts adding to del.icio.us) to my blog here. Still not quite sure about del.icio.us, but signed up for it. I signed up for it because I found a bookmark at the site on Bob. Well, what's that all about, eh? He had a huge flurry of visits to his YouTube site and we were trying to figure it out. It has since died down. So far I've understood that del.icio.us will save your bookmarks from one computer to another, but it also shares your bookmarks with others (if you post to del.icio.us ... and, boy, is that annoying to type out). So I can have all my bookmarks at my finger tips if I have to move from one computer to another, without starting over or leaving them to clutter up other people's bookmarks/favorites lists. Gosh, how could I have lived so long without this. sigh. Sorry it doesn't fit in the space well with this blog, but it looks much better on my other blog.

When in Doubt, Cut and Paste

I've added the library cartoon "Turn the Page" link to my link list, but not without getting the html all up-gescrewed. I thought I was capable of looking at the other links' codes and typing it in just as it was (less the actual url and title), but I was wrong. I got a colon in where an equal sign should be and it just wasn't working. I fell back on cut-and-past and had to look and look and look to see what little bit was wrong. But there it is. I recommend a peek.

Not the Only Cartoon

Check out Jayson's "clog," - a cartoon blog - "Turn the Page,"on working in a library. He inspired me to start cartooning again. Right. So it's his fault.
