delizzy - del.icio.us Bookmarks Search Engine
This is a nice idea. Basically delizzy will grab all your delicious bookmarks, create a small little universe of the content and allow you to search through it. With delicious itself you can only search title, tags and descriptions, not the entire content of the page. Now, as long as you can recall bookmarking the page and something on it, you have a better chance of finding it again.
Of course, if you use FURL you'll know you've been able to do this for years, so quite why it's all of a sudden a big story I'm not entirely sure.

Great heads up - I'm a frequent user of delicious... looks like an awesome addition.

I agree that the delicious web site is pretty grim, and I have fond memories of Furl. However I would be lost without my Firefox plug-in. I use it almost as often as Google. And of course it is automatically synchronised on all three computers I regularly have to use.

I'm interested in the last comment (Neil's) about Delicious vs. Furl. I've been using Del. but signed up for Furl after reading this blog precisely because of the advantage of searching the whole page of saved bookmarks.
I exported by Del. bookmarks into Firefox and from there I'm importing them to Furl (seems to be taking an intolerable amount of time). After exploring the Furl site, I see I could have imported them directly from Del.
At any rate, does anyone have insight into which is the better one to use?
I didn't understand Neil's post re a Del. advantage.
