If so, be sure to tag FlameFans. It wouldn't take much to get us up atop the Liberty search.

Of course I use del.icio.us. Online bookmarking is a lifesaver for those of us who use computers at home, at work and everywhere in between.

You are speaking to the great unwashed, el scorcho. I assumed you and a few others who have been so vocal in the Mac v PC thread might be interested and drop Flamefans a tag.

Its a Web 2.0 thing ...

http://del.icio.us

Its a web reference and somewhat like [urlhttp://digg.com]Digg[/url] in that it is used as a cross-referenced search engine. Its generally a techie thing but it is becoming more popular everywhere. Its free to register and then you can essentially carry your bookmarks/favorites to any computer anywhere. It has a search function that registers things by how many times it is tagged. My request was just a way to move us up the Liberty search so more folks my stumble across our little corner of the web.

Digg.com is more like a user-driven news site, while del.icio.us is a tool for keeping up with bookmarks and useful links, regardless of what computer you're using. I try to bookmark at least 10 interesting articles a day on my del.icio.us account because I find that making the effort keeps me informed, and I syndicate those links on my blog.

The "Top stories in 24 hours" page at Digg is always worth checking out if you're a news junkie, and especially if you have any kind of a techie bend. That page is starting to become as influential toward the standard media as The Drudge Report.
