The domain name. Brilliant. Almost as good as DJB's cr.yp.to. But, my favorite thing about the domain is that you can add new hosts...like capr.icio.us!!! :-) You know what the best thing is about del.icio.us? The domain name. Brilliant.

It apparently does remember me, as long as I don't upgrade Firefox in between visits. :-) Disregard my comment about the “remember me” stuff.

It automagically remembers me. I'll check into seeing if I can get that checkbox implemented. I guess I figured it was doing it for everyone since it does it for me. :-) I'll check out the del.icio.us API and sign up for the mailing lists soon. That’s odd. It automagically remembers me.

I think it has to do with the problems Josh has had trying to handle the load more than anything else. To get around it, I just use his API instead of the RSS feed. I fetch all of the tags I've used and then dump a list of links for each tag. Yes, links with more than one tag get reproduced, but I prefer that. My implementation is pretty ugly at the moment - it's just a quick hack: http://shiflett.org/links I'll clean it up later and possibly add a few more things. Don't forget that you can subscribe to the mailing lists and request these features. I've been lurking on them for several days now, and Josh seems to be pretty responsive to suggestions. By the way, you need a "remember me" option on this blog, so I don't have to type in my name and such every time I visit. :-) That last one on your wish list bugged me, too.
