		<description><![CDATA["The extension's integration into the Firefox Web browser is unparalleled and offers the following priceless, time-saving features..."]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve tested quite a few bookmarking tools and how well they integrate into the Firefox Web browser: Diigo, del.icio.us, Google Browser Sync, Mozilla Weave and more.&#160; The best has always been, and continues to be, the del.icio.us Firefox extension.&#160; The extension&#8217;s integration into the Firefox Web browser is unparalleled and offers the following priceless, time-saving features:</p>
<ul>
<li>keyboard-shortcut (Ctrl+B) activated search-as-you-type functionality     <br />(this brings up the sidebar which brilliantly disappears as soon as you find what you&#8217;re looking for)</li>
<li>the ability to add both tags and notes to your bookmarks</li>
<li>synchronization with your del.icio.us account (meaning that neither a specific browser or the extension itself are necessary to find your bookmarks &#8211; just hit <a href="http://del.icio.us">http://del.icio.us</a> while you&#8217;re on the road and login.)</li>
</ul>
<p>This is one of the few tools that I use every single day and, unfortunately, it&#8217;s core functionality became broken when Mozilla released the beta versions of Firefox v3.&#160; It&#8217;s taken quite a while but Yahoo! has finally released an updated version of the extension yesterday afternoon:    <br /><a title="http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/delicious-firefox-extension/message/2204" href="http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/delicious-firefox-extension/message/2204">http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/delicious-firefox-extension/message/2204</a>.</p>
<p>I found it took a bit of maneuvering to get to the installation file so I&#8217;ve gone ahead and <a href="http://www.fansoftech.com/downloads/deliciousBookmarks-2-0-39.xpi">posted it on our site</a> for you to download.&#160; Just save the file, open your Firefox Add-Ons window and drag-and-drop the .xpi in there.&#160; The installation process will proceed and you&#8217;ll be prompted to download the update.</p>
<p>By the way, kudos to Yahoo! for listening to their users and pushing out an update to this extension.&#160; The final version of Firefox 3.0 hasn&#8217;t even been released so they technically didn&#8217;t &quot;have&quot; to release a version yet but they realized there was a huge demand for it.&#160; Are you paying attention, Google?&#160; I only ask because it&#8217;s been almost two years since <a title="Google Firefox Extension: Google Browser Sync" href="http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/browsersync/">Google Browser Sync</a> was released and very little has been done to keep it updated.&#160; In addition, you&#8217;ll notice that almost every post in the <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Firefox-Extensions">Google Firefox Extensions newsgroup</a> remains unanswered.</p>
