Oh, crap! What did they do to it? It was working just fine yesterday, or maybe the day before, not sure when I last looked at it, now it's all ker-frelled. Well, that wasn't very nice of it. I guess I'll have to give you those recs another time, at least en masse.

Good God, I can't believe how fucked up that is! It worked perfectly fine before, now half my tags give me 404 errors. ::tears hair out::

Their to-do list in the FAQ is LONG. This is about was well thought out as the Gawker upgrade.

That is a clusterfuck of massive proportions. My tag list is totally screwed, I can't even see most of my tags in it, it's not alphabetical anymore, and they've invented new ones and stuck them in there. Plus, any tag with a slash mark in it like Kirk/McCoy gives me a 404!

Man, I bookmarked another bookmarking site to move all of them over because I was afraid of something like this, but I got lazy. Oy. That'll teach me.

I am *so* in love with my extra tabs, though. If they just added stuff (like the three features) without breaking ten, I'd be just fine. If they had a timeline for replacing the stuff they say they're working on, that'd be totally responsible.

I sent off my bug report/complaint. I'm totally on that train now. I looked around for alternatives before, and I didn't like any of them, and I still don't. I want a fixed Delicious.

Wow. I know the FAQ is evidence of bad product launch planning, but did no one read it?

If they fix the slash thing and the display limiter, I think I'll be OK.

No one reads the FAQ, just like no one reads the help documentation. It's an eternal frustration of mine.

I can only hope some of them are at least sending in bug reports and level-headed complaints.

I despised every moment of the gawker redesign (let me not call it an upgrade again), and Nick Denton is a pompous airtime-grabbing ass, but it was made clear that the team was made up of a lot of people, they didn't walk in lockstep, and they did actually respond to bug reports, and stuff (SLOWLY) got fixed. I did this because I didn't see a viable alternative for IO9.

I feel the same way about Delicious. If I had woken up and they'd just added what I can see new, I'd have been *delighted*. And I told them that, in conjunction with the shit that's not on their list that should be working and doesn't seem to.

I can't really complain level-headedly, because it seems like the way I use the site is not how I will be able to use the site in the future. The thing I don't see addressed in the FAQ is the use of recent and popular for tags. How I currently use delicious is that I chose a fanfic pairing (say John/Sherlock) and click on recent or popular. Then I choose what to read. Now if I search for John/sherlock, I get my links, I get a list of other links (no idea what order they are in, but when I click recent or popular, I get the most recent or popular links for the whole site.
