Joshua Eichorn, in the search for something a bit easier to maintain the "AJAX resources" section of his site, has turned to del.icio.us for some help.
I've been working on a long term solution for my AJAX resource lists, i wasted a couple hours trying out del.icio.us and Spurl. del.icio.us is great except it doesn't allow for a large comment which is the whole point of my resource list. Spurl has a large comment section but the interface for tagging isn't as nice as del.icio.us and its feeds don't give you all the tags for each item which is a deal breaker for me.
So I went on a bit of a hacking using del.icio.us as my base. I added a half screen scraped post screen extending the form and having it post to my server so I could store the data in my database. I then use the api to add the entry to del.icio.us.
Sounds like a much easier way to maintain (and allow others to potentially add) resources in the ever-changing world of AJAX...del.icio.us really has become a "meta-site" - used for more than just tagging and categorizing information...
