Bad Taste

It seems del.icio.us is having a minor problem with its auto-post function.

In theory, as I wander the web, I can add links of interest to my del.icio.us account, and once a day del.icio.us posts my latest links collation into this blog.

In theory.

It looks like it’s borked – I’m not the only one having trouble.

So, I’ll put my latest finds to date in this post manually, until I can figure out a way to get around the problem.

Got to love computers, dontcha?
