I thought you meant "the post url is so annoying it makes del.icio.us essentially unusable," which is what some students assert. Brian–My bad: I didn’t know that was your point.

You can find it at http://del.icio.us/post. The browser buttons are more useful, but this makes the service useful to anyone at a computer.

Brian, I've had the same concerns about Firefox/del.icio.us in a university setting. I'm toying with the idea of having students buy a flash drive and use <a href="http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable" rel="nofollow">Portable Firefox</a>, which they can customize to their heart's content (I think). Thanks for the links, Jason.

One thing that I have always disliked about the service is that it is essentially unusable if your browser doesn't have the buttons installed. This isn't a problem on your own computer or on a laptop. But if you are using public computers, as students frequently do at a university, they might not have the rights to install the needed buttons and cannot, therefore, tag. I've just initiated a conversation here at Emory about including the del.icio.us add-on for Firefox in the image that will be on the desktops for next semester.

This <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2354" rel="nofollow">one</a> is also nice. I use the official del.icio.us plug-in.

This one is also nice.
