Lots of people use delicious for bookmarking, including me. So I’ve
written a plugin for the Gnome deskbar applet that searches your
del.icio.us bookmarks. Download Delicious Deskbar below and drop the
file in the .gnome2/deskbar-applet/handlers/
folder in your home
directory. By default it will search all of del.icio.us for the tag you
enter, but you can configure it to search just your bookmarks through
the Preferences window. Deskbar’s a nice thing to work with, in case I
haven’t mentioned this. I think it could do with some more visual
flashiness, myself, and I also wish that stuff like this went in
Library/Deskbar Applet/Handlers
rather than the hidden .gnome2
folder — that’s one thing that the Mac people definitely got right!
Update: fixed a bug when using multiple search terms in deskbar. Update:
licenced under the GNU GPL 2.0. Download the latest version.
