Thing 10 - My delicious headache

First off I have to mention how sad the delicious site looks, it reminds of those sites you end up at when you've typed the URL in wrong. You know what I'm talking about.
Anyhow, I'm trying not to judge a book by it's cover but in step 2, where you can supposedly add some handy dandy delicious buttons to your browser toolbar, it just took me to a defunct link.
Ohhhkkay, moving on to step 3...okay i give up on step 3 too because apparently delicious is not a firefox fan.
Okay so I've been fooling around with this thing for about 10 minutes now and it reminds me a lot of the application StumbleUpon minus the user friendly and fun parts. For me personally the delicious thing would only come in handy if I wanted to view certain bookmarks at any computer anywhere, as a leisurely activity to find new sites that might interest me, I think it somewhat fails.

Although, after browsing other library's delicious accounts I can see how this might be a useful reference/research tool for patrons. However it seems like it would need constant upkeep for whoever was in charge of it.
