Finally - the new-look Delicious arrives
Jul 31st, 2008 by handolio
A while back, exactly six months back in fact, I wrote a How-to guide covering del.icio.us. At the time, a redesign and rebrand to just Delicious had been in the pipeline for ages - it was overdue at the time and had conspicuously failed to appear since.
Until now - I just bookmarked something to be greeted with a shiny, new-look window, and the site finally looks like it was probably meant to months ago. The URL’s changed too; from http://del.iciou.us to http://delicious.com.
It’s late, and I’m about to go to sleep, so I won’t attempt to list the changes. It looks cleaner and more modern, though, and it appears to be a bit easier to navigate. Good stuff, but not earth-shattering: what took them so long?
[…] find delicious to be hugely useful as do the people I work with so it was good that they finally got around to updating the site last week. What is it […]
I’ve noticed Delicious won’t stay logged in like del.icio.us - it prompts for a user name and password between different browser sessions, which could get annoying unless I find an option to change it.
Ah, found it - you need to visit your main Delicious profile, where there’s an option to ‘Remember me on this computer’.
Now they just need to fix it so that clicking things like the inbox option on the pop-up tagging window doesn’t result in a bigger screen than the non-scrolling, non-scalable window can show.
