Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Brown Betty writes a lot of my favorite Leverage fic. She's on AO3.

Thanks...looks like there are a lot of Leverage fics on that archive.

The way I've been searching that archive is by clicking first on "bookmarks" and then paging through until I find a story in a fandom I like, and then clicking on the fandom name in a bookmark, which gives you only stories in that fandom that people bookmarked, if that makes any sense.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yeah, that's ALL OVER my DW network. Post after post. Apparently there's a few people talking about a fan-run alternative, like Fanlore and the AO3.

Thing is, fandom needs a social bookmarking site all in one place, or it doesn't so much good. So unless everyone agrees to use the same site, it's not nearly as much use.

Yeah, I am going to have to go through and create a bookmark folder for my delicious stuff, which is a PITA, but not having a good way to look at other people's stuff is really annoying.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yep yep yep. This is the problem I've been wrestling at all day for other delicious purposes (because omg I haven't even looked at dw and now I'm very afraid). What I'd really like to see is a multitool standard format for sharing tagged bookmarks - so you could go to whatever other site, or bookmark in lj/dw memories, or in AO3, or post your stuff on your own site like it was 1993 all over again, and still get intelligent feeds of interesting people and tags across all of those sites.

Sadly, never gonna happen.

I've already exported my delicious list and I'm going through on my endless effort to copy stuff to my hard drive before links die. I just don't know where to move the links to.

What about this: [link] It looks like it offers a number of places that work similar to Delicious where you can export those bookmarks to.

I saw it on Facebook, I think it was from Calli (I'm not always sure on board/real name associations.)
