Definitely not going back to delicious.

I sent 6 detailed bug reports to their support email, and never had one reply.

1. Log out of delicious.com (make sure you are logged out on the extension AND the site)
2. Go to Tools -> Clear Recent History
– Select Time Range: Everything
– Check the “Cookies”, “Cache”, and “Active Logins” options
3. Close and re-open Firefox
4. Sign In to Delicious
5. Go to Tools -> Delicious Options -> Sync Now

Yes, because that’s just how people should have to update FF extensions. Just how more clueless can the new-Delicious crew prove to be?

At first, it was hardly useable. Now, it’s back to adequate, from my perspective. If it keeps improving for a couple more weeks, I’ll stick with it. It still beats me why AVOS did this – it seems so gratuitous.

Follow these steps from our Status Blog and it should work again: http://status.delicious.com/2011/09/firefox-extension-fixed-after-long.html

Am using the bookmarklet but am still waiting for them to update the pluging with the same functionality the bookmarklet has. Other than that, it’s been a smooth transition.

We had almost 200 students and alumni in the green MBA program at BGI.edu using the network feature together to share links on business, sustainability, ecology, systems thinking, etc. It was very powerful, but now totally broken.

It’s a maddening process that takes over ten minutes during which time the browser is frozen and unusable. I’ve seen many others with the same complaint– don’t know why they haven’t attended to the issue yet. Opening firefox ten times or more a day in these terms translates to 1 1/2 to 2 hours a day syncing my bookmarks, a ridiculous situation.
