I find myself often wishing I had some sort of control panel with a few one-touch/one-click buttons for some simple features (for example, a start/abort bookmark synch). One feature I have been wondering about is an auto-cull feature whereby delicious could go out over the web, attempt to connect to each one of your stored bookmarks, and then return a list of dead or rerouted links and allow you as a user to decide to keep them or not. I don't think I'm the only one that would find this useful, but currently, I have collected over 3,000 bookmarks and would love to simplify the process instead of having to manually visit each page (very time-consuming) and determine whether I should keep, tag, or delete these links. What do you all think? > > Also, just a comment/question about the naming scheme for the tags (this might be a philosophical discussion more than anything): I am sure I'm not the only one who finds naming tags like "charlieparker" to be really annoying. Programmer or not, I liked the fact that under the old regime I could have nested folders named more like natural language. Also, I'm interested in knowing how other people tag their bookmarks. For example, I find that I tend to tag my bookmarks more for my own personal reference than for sharing, which means I often leave out very specific tags that other people might search for. As an example, I have a bunch of bookmarks on electrical engineering (being that I am an EE) but I don't like typing "electrical engineering" as two separate tags, and I don't like tags such as "electricalengineering", so I have shortened that to "EE". But using that scheme, would most people know to look for electrical engineering bookmarks using "EE"?

I have something else in mind. How about a way to block users? Or at least a filter mechanism so such content as porn can be blocked off especially in the subscriptions page.
