Delicious Sings The Badges Song

0 views

Everyone has a social bookmark tagging button these days; Del.icio.us has updated its usual button to be more functional, and renamed it as well.

Delicious Sings The Badges Song"Vote for Pedro" t-shirts, the minds behind the homage. It's all good, though. Delicious now has the out there." So what is a Tagometer? Glad you asked: Like simpler static widgets, it includes a button inviting readers to bookmark your page on del.icio.us. The Tagometer opens things up from there - using a JSON data feed from del.icio.us, the Tagometer includes an up-to-date count of others who've already bookmarked the page, as well as a fresh list of the top tags applied. Visitors can click on the count to see more detail on who bookmarked your page, when they did it, and how they tagged it. The list of tags shows visitors why your page is interesting, and clicking on a tag takes them to similar sites on del.icio.us. This is what it looks like in action. You Delicious users reading this can go ahead and bookmark this article, then come back to see the results. (Yes I know this is a shameless bit of promotion as well as a useful exercise in demonstrating the Tagometer. Man up and click the darn thing already.) The Internets like the Tagometer too.
