I have seen the postings on Delicious Bookmarklets before, but I thought they where cheesy and not really want I wanted. Well I finally broke down and read about them while I was waiting on a call from a client. And low and behold, they are actually pretty nice. I now have two links for Delicious in my bookmark bar. One is to add a tag to delicious and the other is to view my Home, which is a feed of your links.

The only thing it is truly missing is a way to pull in your bookmarks. But I think this is a good thing. It will keep me from using Delicious as my internal bookmark tool, it will move it more towards what it is, and a socializing bookmark tool. Links that are specific to this machine I’m on, or links that aren’t important for me to remember elsewhere will go there. They will be true bookmarks, while my Delicious links are will become more of a socializing way to share links with friends and family. Things I will want to pull up elsewhere, not my payroll company or a link to the google chrome release blog

Just thought I would give my two cents on the matter and an initial endorsement on the whole Bookmarklets thing.

While it is hard to trust google, and what they are monitoring while you would be using their OS, I welcome the change. The OS market is was developed when there was no internet , at least not how we know it today. Think of the Palm’s Pre and how superior it is over the iPhone b/c Palm centering the OS around the web. Andriod has a lot of the same feature. And now the Operating System. We no longer use one machine to manage our data. Hell, I use two machines just at work. No including the data and process that I work on in a server.
