Many who will find this interesting already know about it; many who don’t know about it, won’t care anyways. But nonetheless, I feel like gloating.
I’ve discovered Delicious, and it is good.

“Delicious is a social bookmarks manager.” That sums it up nicely, but what the hell does that mean? Perhaps it’s better if I explain how it works.

1. I’m browsing the web, and I come across something I find interesting. Instead of saving a bookmark to my browser, I click a bookmark I already have, labeled “Post to Delicious”.
2. I am taken to a page where I can change the page’s title, write a brief description, and write some tags — one-word categories where this link belongs.
3. My bookmark is now added to Delicious, and is displayed on the front page, under my user page, and under all its tag pages.

This alone makes Delicious worth mentioning; a social network and link exchange where people can explore who else has bookmarked the same pages as they have.

But here’s the kicker: every user and tag on Delicious has its own RSS feed. That means you can use any RSS aggregator to track bookmarks in Delicious.

Why do I love this? Because now, on the right-hand side of the page, a list of my most recent bookmarks gets updated every half-hour. Call it silly and egocentric, but I find this an incredibly neat feature.

Excuse me while I go celebrate.
