i created a del.icio.us account yesterday. i also decided to catch up with 2002 and implemented syndication of the del.icio.us bookmarks to atomly.com. as sntx said, "it's funny. finally the semantic web is gaining mad steam. it's awesome. tim berners-lee will have the last laugh yet."
rss syndication and aggregation is probably the most exciting technology for me in recent years. i remember a few years ago buildling (poorly) a python script to screen scrape my favorite websites and put them together in a homepage that i could use. now yahoo does that for me. it's pretty awesome that the average user now has access to a website that can aggregate all of their favorite rss feeds into one simple page with customizable layout. the web is finally doing what i want it to do. it's awesome.
