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.

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

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?

Thing is, fandom needs a social bookmarking site all in one place, or it doesn't so much good.

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.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

The more I think about it, the more upset I am. I can deal with exporting my bookmarks, but I seriously use it as a tool to find fic, and I have no idea how I am going to adjust.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Fandom will fill the vacuum. It'll just take some time.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Someone will create a bookmark aggregator site.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I have to pimp out this fan comic, based on a fic a friend of mine wrote about a possible origin story for a Nolanverse Catwoman.

My current favorite yuletide story is this Frasier/Supernatural fusion.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

ZOMG that is the most hilarious thing, ever.

I'd assumed it would be Sam and Dean transplanted to Seattle as pretentious psychiatrists, but this is SO MUCH BETTER! The writer needs to pitch it to Sera Gamble as a 7th season episode.
