concerning the Delicious archive
Hi everyone.
As some of you might know and have seen, Delicious (formerly owned by yahoo) has been taken over by a new company (AVOS) and changed completely.
When the migration to the new servers was announced it was agree or lose the archive, so of course I agreed. At that point I didn't know how badly prepared AVOS was for the takeover and that most promised new features would be incomplete and some of the old ones missing completely. In addition, their support services are practically impossible to contact unless you have an email programme (such as Outlook) on your computer. Which I don't.
I am fed up with this and therefore moving the archive to a more reliable source *knocks on wood*; livejournal.
This will take a while, but will bring with it one huge advantage. Everyone will be able to help archive new prompts and fills. This means that archiving will hopefully be faster and more complete.
So please be patien. I know Delicious is a mess and the tags aren't there, but unfortunately I can't do anything about it, currently.
Thanks.
