I have been finding the del.icio.us posting interface increasingly
slower to load and process.

At home behind a dedicated broadband connection it is acceptable, but
at many of my client sites, some of whom admittedly have poor internet
connections, the posting interface is almost unusable.

I have recently been working on a complete, client side posting form,
using a cached copy of my bookmarks, but obviously, I miss out on the
tag recommendations.

This certainly helps the load time on the del posting form.

Anyway, while jogging today, I had a thought on an alternative posting solution:

EMAIL !

How about accepting emailed bookmarks.

Havn't given it a great deal of thought but you could use listserv
type commands in the body of the email for:

username
url
title
notes
tags

Optionally you could also restrict posting to the users registered
del.icio.us email address ?

At least it would get users out of trouble posting bookmarks in
connection challenged environments.
