Delicious

Hi people,

Well, I'm still frantically trying to complete 23 things within 10 weeks.....which is probably a pipedream but I figure I'm not out of the game yet. Even if it is Week 10 this week and I have....10 tasks to go. ha.

Anyway.

I was actually going to write up this post yesterday, involving my adventures on Delicious, but instead got so distracted on account of the wealth of information on Delicious, that I couldn't quite drag myself away.

As a side note: did you know that according to an ancient Greek myth, Andromeda was once a princess of Ethopia? Her mother was so boastful of her own beauty, that she claimed she was more beautiful than the Queen of the Gods, enraging Poseidon, who send a terrible sea monster to ravage Ethopia. Andromeda's parents were told by the oracle of Apollo that the only way to end the attack on Ethopia was to sacrifice their daughter Andromeda to the sea monster. So they chained her naked to a rock on the coast and waited for her to die. But Perseus, traveling home after defeating the Gordon Medusa, saw Andromeda, and fell in love with her. He slew the sea monster and freed Andromeda on the condition that her parents would permit him to marry her. When Andromeda died she was placed by the gods in the sky, forever near Perseus, and her boastful mother Cassiopeia.

- Cassiopeia due to her boastful ways and vanity, was also placed in the sky, but as a punishment by the Gods. She sits upon a chair in the sky, but due to her position around the Pole star, she spends half her time upside down.

As you can see, I got very distracted on delicious. I could tell you more Greek myths (I learned quite a few yesterday thanks to Delicious), but then I wouldn't be rabbiting on about Delicious, I'd be rabbiting on about myths instead

I think it's fantastic that I can bookmark websites I'm interested in, and also find new sites that might interest me, because of the way Delicious works. I could spend hours on Delicious, so it's definitely a 'look at when I'm at home' activity and have a few hours spare. It's easy to use, and if I have any issues with Delicious, it is that it almost feels like there is too much information available. I could go looking for information on there and go, ' ohhh, that looks interesting' (like yesterday), and keep doing so forever. I don't know where it would end.

But Delicious is excellent and a lot of fun and I'll definitely be using it again in the future.
