DISQUS

Justin · 1 year ago

Hey Nick, great question, and serendipitous - I was just putting together an post on Diigo.

My problem with Diigo is close to your initial concerns - and, although I generally don't let it stand in the way of giving it a try, I tend to think that services suffer from having to be downloaded and installed. It creates difficulty straight from the start, and lays a hurdle in the user's path.

Another problem I have with services like Diigo and others like Adaptive Blue's in-browser-service, is that I use multiple computers - and, I need for these things to be able to follow me wherever I go!!

Maybe I'm lazy, but I usually give up on these services before I get bored with them because they're, essentially, one more thing I'd have to do when I get online.

And, I don't want to have to work harder.

Some of the nice features of diigo that are missing from del.icio.us is the ability to have a conversation about a bookmark. I setup a tag for my company and bookmark relevant articles there. It would be nice to carry on a conversation linked to that article but there is no way to do that in del.icio.us or other bookmarking sites. People can subscribe to the RSS feed of a particular tag or they can have a conversation with me about that link. Now if they added trackbacks for the conversation so that, if its a blog posting, the conversation could be linked in that would be even better.

I would prefer to do these things in del.icio.us since most of my bookmarks are there, but since Yahoo! bought them development of new features has been fairly stagnant.
