Week 31
Tuku, Finland
Since 2011 I am member of del.icio.us. I would say I am a frequent user of it, as in this time I have collected there 8,482 links. The last link I saved was on July 4th, 2017.
Today I decided to startto declutter my browser. This implies to save some links. Then, surprise!!! Del.icio.us button on my browser did not allow me to save Calm people! It is not the first time Del.icio.us has a problem.
What do next? of course, to research what it is going on. After some challenges, I was able to log in on my browser. I start to explore inside my account how to save my link and then I got the following message:
NEWS (for me) del.icio.us has been bought by Pinboard. According to Wikipedia this happened on June 1st. Honestly I had not idea about this. Perhaps I will dig on my emails to see if I was informed somehow….
Nevertheless, now my direct challenge is: what I will use?
Researching again, I found pocket. Apparently it is a nice tool. The following video sold it to me:
Now starting on pocket. Hopefully I can export my links from delicious! New task for my TODO list.
However all this adventure brings me back to a topic I am often think about: be aware if your life depends only of a cloud!
