I cant access delicious much of the time. Nothing comes up in the window – and I get a “cant access this site” message from Safari. Do I need to find an alternative?

This explains why Yahoo is such a mess today.
- What a third rated Company Yahoo became with this bizarre/Cheap transfer of Delicious AVOS company.
- when company/product is sold to another , yahoo has to ensure the new company is respectable one.
- I missed the NOV 1 deadline so I lost all my account completely. How come this can happen in this DAY and AGE of Cloud computing.
– my second rate Image of Yahoo now became third rate. What is loser company yahoo is …

I am quitting delicios… At first, all of my imported bookmarks were marked private. Next, I discovered that ALL of my tags were nuked. SO frustrated. I have been using since 2006 to post all of my favorite links and would use Delicious regularly to “remember” links.

Grunden til jeg ikke bruger Delicious mere kan findes i dette indlæg: Oh, Delicious – where did it all go so wrong? http://t.co/HlymOwPO

It’s all about discovering the right triangulator. It will take some time for the NiduScope to prevail. All about idiosyncratic vocabularies and speed.

I just logged in today and my bookmarks appear to be there, but every single tag is missing. I spent a significant amount of time in August organizing all my tags. I emailed tech support and this is what I got back from a Mike Miller: Hi anitaagarwal,

I am sorry to hear about this issue, but am here to get to the bottom of it for you. If you could please send an email to feedback@avos.com titled “ATTN: Matt Miller – MISSING TAGS” with your username and password I will look into this issue for you immediately.

Thanks,
Matt

Really?!?! I have never been asked for my password from tech support and fact have been warned about giving out passwords upon request, which is typically indicative of a scam. They seem to have a bunch of techies controlling the whole transition with little thought given to project management, customer service or even some basic things like “go/no go” decisions for go live.

My Save button is still frozen – could not save my bookmark on Delicious. At least here at gigaom I can save a bookmark with every comment I leave behind (hint: click on my name).

Help! I still can’t get back into the old delicious site!!

I’m the admin on my computer (running Vista Home Premium).
I’ve put the info into the hosts file and saved it, I’ve cleared browser histories, restarted, flushed the dns in the command window etc, yet the new site still pops up and mocks me when I type in http://www.delicious.com. I’ve also triple checked the ip addresses via netcraft. I’ve tried in Chrome and in IE9.

Oh and thanks a lot yahoo for never emailing me re the migration and also for not acknowledging my acceptance of the migration.
