del.icio.us on iPhone

August 6th, 2008 by mcadwallader

If you have a Windows PC, here’s how to get delicious working on the iphone so that you can tag pages, presumably the process is similar on a MAC. There is a quick tip video on how to do this somewhere but it is out of date and, as I found out, overly simplified. It also involves overuse of the word ‘booya’.

Install safari

Go to http://delicious.com/

Log in

Go to http://delicious.com/help/bookmarklets

Drag the links as instructed under the heading ‘Safari’

To make the bookmarks quickly available and not hidden away in a folder in you iphone bookmarks:
In Safari go to Bookmarks>Show all bookmarks
Drag the delicious links from the bookmarks bar across and under BOOKMARKS on the left
Delete all the default stuff if you don’t want it

Close Safari

Open ITunes

Click on your iPhone and go to the info page

Scroll down to Web Browser and check sync bookmarks with Safari

Sync

Log in to delicious on your iphone

Go to bed as it’s way past your bedtime now
