So, if you have a series of bookmarks privately tagged as "jobhunt" that tag will show up in your list--even if other people cannot see the posts listed under that tag. So, be careful what tags you use. Try something neutral like "career" instead in this case. ;-) I asked the del.icio.us help folks if there is a way to hide tags, and they said no. So, please beware! Cheers, Connie P.S. Congrats on your run time in the Boston Marathon, Dave! We were watching your times during the run with great awe. :-) Word of caution: when you mark an item as “do not share” the tags you use are still available in the tag list.

You never know when someone with a contrary agenda will take something out of context and twist it - especially if you are in politics or a law suit! Removing certain posts from public view is an excellent safety measure - while leaving the bulk of your bookmarks open to public view in the spirit of helping each other find valuable information and fun things!

I'm generally selective about what I bookmark using Del.icio.us (generally just things that I find interesting and think others might enjoy too. I'm still stuck in the local bookmark headspace for most of my saved pages. Good thinking Dave!

I was looking at some sort of weird web pages recently, doing research for my novel, and I had second thoughts about saving it to del.icio.us. It wasn't anything horrible, but it would have raised a few eyebrows from my friends following me. Good to know this is an option. That is great advice!

I never have to worry about backing up my bookmarks (although I'd be screwed if they lost them). I have also used the "do not share" feature a couple of times. :) I’ve been using del.icio.us(/angela!!) for a long time, and I find it *invaluable*.
