i have been using the del.icio.us daily post for over 2 months and it resulted in 62 posts. instead of being useful it really just cluttered up the page format. then again, most other people i see with daily del.icio.us postings don’t tag 30+ items a day… i think my longest post was ~100 links. heh, oops.

plus i was really starting to wonder if other people were getting annoyed because of a trackback that pointed to a link list. i’ll have to play around with a couple of different search mashups to see if i can get a search for bonq.net that includes a few other sources.

The following placeholders can be used:

• %count%: the amount of bookmarks in the post
• %<date-variable>%: any one of the PHP date() variables
• %nr%: the number of the current bookmark in the post (only in the bookmark format)
• %url%: the URL of the current bookmark in the post (only in the bookmark format)
• %title%: the title of the current bookmark in the post (only in the bookmark format)
• %extended%: the extended (description) of the current bookmark in the post (only in the bookmark format)
• %tags%: the tags of the current bookmark in the post (only in the bookmark format)
• %bookmarks%: the entire content of the post (only in the excerpt)
• %tag%: the name of the current tag of the current bookmark (only in the tag format)
• %tag-url%: the URL of the current tag of the current bookmark (only in the tag format)

right now it looks like :

• A Windows Hosts Manager _{(tags: winxp configuration networking hosts)}
• Google Starts Rolling Out Centralized Profiles _{(tags: identity profiles review social profile google)}
• About the Google Profile _{(tags: googleprofile information 2007 products social Profile Google)}
  

after changing it to :

<li>%title% <a href=”%url%” title=”%title%” onmouseover=”Tip(’tags: %tags%’)>#</a></li>

hrm. that’s not gonna work cause it puts “’s in the onmouseover string.

<ul><li>%title% <a href=”http://www.ghacks.net/2007/12/16/a-windows-hosts-manager/” title=”A Windows Hosts Manager” onmouseover=”Tip(’tags: <a href=”http://del.icio.us/flipp/winxp” title=”More from winxp on del.icio.us”>winxp</a><a href=”%url%” title=”%title%” #</a>%tags%’)>A Windows Hosts Manager</a> </li>

that was fun going back through and fixing the del.icio.us links by hand. atleast the wysiwyg editor made it a little faster. i wasn’t up to figuring out the correct :%s reg-exp for vi. right now i have the tags turned off, it makes the daily del.icio.us posts easier to read, but is going to kill any search functionality that having the tags would provide. boo.
