a little on Daiko's current status
Now Playing: various songs in my head, but Sanctus Real's
I can't seem to find an emote here on this blog that conveys my status too well or maybe I'm more used to LJ's multiple emotes that are customizeable? hn, still thought that may be true, I say that Angelfire really could use a "sleepy" emote...

disregard the stuff under the cut, it's something I posted earlier that's still relevant for today, but not of great interest... (that is, unless you're interested in [del.icio.us])
Anyway, today I updated my [del.icio.us account] and there are still so many good URLs that I want to share with the world! (Yourwaresolutions definately comes to mind, but I am happy that I've found so many and put a few up there^-^) -I don't know exactly how I feel [nor what actions I will be taking] with regards to del.icio.us' new feature: private links- I can see how it would be a good idea, but that goes against my original intentions for starting a del.icio.us account especially since I joined for the social link-sharing aspect of it all- I do see that del.icio.us and it's ilk are made for storing the bookmarks one wants to visit online but still (I think that it would be better to have a private account somewhere else if one wants to have a place only for their special links, I don't think that del.icio.us is the place for it, at least not before the recent change that is now here [since yesterday, I believe...])

-at least I've got a good thing going on with my browser catching everything and letting me go back through all the URLs of my clickstreams by poking around in my history, that's fun rediscovery right there~


Hey... Angelfire! I'm getting tired of the way that there's been a delay in displaying my recent blog posts- it makes it look as if I update less than I do in reality!

~cut due to length~
(Yes, I'm aware of the fact that I don't update that often... in comparison of how I used to post and in comparison to others, but that's not the main point here.) From what I have seen, the most recent blog entry that shows up on this page by default is the one that I made in February which was last Month- why is that? (Angelfire really makes me wonder at times, -sigh- but I guess I shouldn't complain too much since I get to use their decent service for free, it's just that I know that things could be better... Another thing, I really miss the ability to easily browse through the categories of blogs and find similar Angelfire hosted blogs- they didn't seem to say anything about the loss of this feature to their users either *mild, slight yet Real irritation* ...I'm thinking that this move was partly due to the fact that they wish to put more emphasis on their "Planet" module- is that the right term? I thought it was correct... I don't if forsaking one services features to promote another is a good idea though... for one thing, it will bother the users of the former service- still, Angelfire has done a decent job with their blogs and I have been around long enough here as a user of this sevice to note the features we were given and seen the limitations lifted off... -sigh-)

I posted earlier this month [March] and was hoping to see my recent blog post first on this site- now that I think about it, it could just be me and something browser-related on my side of the computer screen, but I doubt it since a similar situation as this one has occurred before.

(-gah! maybe I should move these "Angelfire-ranty-musings" to my alternate Planet-based blog on here... which I don't like and just got on a whim -sigh- there should be REAL discussion on these topics though, I'm not alone- and those who found themselves dissatisfied with this service moved away from it quickly enough *wonders how long Angelfire will be around if they keep up these practices* some of them were blogging friends that I met on here who are now on [Blogger] and on [Xanga] respectively. :( ...)

I wonder, will this blog post be viewable after I post it? (-and if so, then exactly how long will it take to get to that once common and easily-reached state?)

*hopes to get her Angelfire hosted things in order...*


****
-sigh- I've been looking around and taking in so much stuff online, nothing bad but I have other things that require my attention: schoolwork to do (two assignments T-T') as well as a room that needs to be cleaned... with stuff to be organized, clothes to be put away, artwork to categorize, ideas on scraps of paper that should be transfered to a notebook and expanded upon for my archival and recall purposes- general tidying to make my room look nicer wouldn't be amiss either ;_;

Also, there are those personal projects that I would like to get to- yet I allow myself to be distracted by the content of others online, by viewing the things that have been created already on the internet- I have stuff to add too!

and work to do offline of course. -sigh-

Pray for me...
(I have work due next Monday! Help! o.o)


-Daiko~
(please be well and take care.)
