No more furl.net

So, Furl.net the bookmarking site is gone. This distressed me at first since I have about five thousand bookmarks on it. The Furl email suggested migrating to Diigo but they proved to be overwhelmed by new users and couldn’t import my bookmarks.  I’ll check back with Diigo but I want my bookmarks now, so I turned to Delicious.

WordPress offers Delicious as a widget, so I tried them. I’m liking the new system so far, it’s got a bit more flexibility in tagging. I’ve been playing with bundling and cleaning up duplicates and so forth.

Ultimately, I intend to make public worthwhile links to blogs and sites that pertain to comics, romance and fantasy.
