Delicious WordPress

I always just assume most new web apps are mostly used by little guys. Take Twitter for example. Out of the gate it just seems like a way to post your status to the web and interact with your friends. Nothing big. Well, until the celebs and branding experts realized the potential…

So it’s always fun to see how big corporations or people use this stuff. Like Oprah with Skype, or the military with Google Earth.

One cool discovery I made was how Oracle was using Delicious. Basically they linked all their documentation and help files that they had on the web through Delicious bookmarks. The benefits seem pretty obvious: Tagging, descriptions, organization of their site. Seems like a great way to organize a lot of links and data, but extend the organization beyond a simple site map by using Delicious’s system for bookmarks.

All that to say I’m trying to follow in their footsteps.

I noticed that I had started to amass a good amount of WordPress links. Links to plugins, themes, official documentation, and articles that have turned out to be pretty useful. But only about half were uploaded to my Delicious account.

So I spent a bit of time organizing my links, and set up a “corporate” Delicious account. Right now it’s mostly WordPress, but I’m sure I’ll be updating with links to notable documentation on this site as well as other arenas.

So for the time being, take a look at my WordPress tagged links, I’m sure there are a few things you might find useful in there.
