Remember when I mentioned that Ma.gnolia died and I lost all my hosted bookmarks, but not to worry because they were all posted here automatically, albeit in a very non-retrievably-friendly way? Well, I've started back up at Delicious again and now I'm working on getting all my old bookmarks back on there. I've got them all collected in a single HTML document, but now I've got to put together some clever regex to strip them all out at put them in something Delicious will be able to import. I've skimmed the file and it shouldn't be too hard, but I don't know if the tags will survive the import. Going in the opposite direction, I see Delicious will include tags as a comma-separated string in a TAGS attribute when doing an export, so I've got a place to start anyway. Wish me luck!
I find it suspicious Lexycle (owned by Amazon) just happened to release the 2.1 update to Stanza (“at Apple’s request”) whose only change was to remove its hacky USB syncing, the weekend after Apple announces the iPad and iBookstore. Especially considering the other apps using the same hack were all notified and updated in early Dec (http://j.mp/bJfR9n) and Stanza 2.0 came out around the same time with the feature still intact. Amazon’s deviousness is already well documented. Amazon should stick to what it’s good at, being a retailer, because it sucks at being a bully in everything else.
