well, if you ask me …

I’ve been fooling around with how to post links to my linkblog and del.icio.us for a while now. I posted about this three times in July (14^th, 23^rd, 31^st) while I was playing with the best setup for me.Since then, I have toyed with a few different tools for managing this. In September, I developed a solution that I liked. I wrote a toolbar button which, when clicked, would take the info from the page I was on and post to my linkblog using a combination of builtin WordPress code and my own code from 7/14 and then post to deli.icio.us and redirect me to deli.icio.us “done” message. Aside from the occassional unescaped character, it worked beautifully for a while, and I liked it.Recently, I noticed that the links were not posting to my blog (I know some of you don’t understand why I even want this - that’s okay). After messing with it for a few minutes I decided to just do things another way. I wrote another toolbar button that would post to my linkblog using builtin WordPress functionality and popup (in a tab, of course) the del.icio.us post form with the tags populated. I copy the tags, submit to del.icio.us, paste my tags into WordPress, and submit. Quick and easy enough for me.If you use FireFox and WordPress, you can drag this link — Post Link to your toolbar.Now, edit the code as follows - replace DELICIOUSUSERNAME with your del.ici.us username and replace WORDPRESSURL with your wordpress blog URL.
