Thank you for posting this! I never got around to backing up my data during the last kerfuffle. Guess I'll go do that now.

Highly recommended! Not that I don't trust YouTube founders, etc, but my largest concern is that the TOS has dramatically shifted the burden of content misuse from the viewer to the poster, which I'm going to be watching warily. These aren't stupid people and they must know that a large percentage of their user base are fandom people, so if they're going to make an example of someone, based on what they want Delicious to be now, they'll do it in the months to come.

Oh! Lack of death is great! Transfer over to your gmail bookmarks or something.

And because lj reminded me (and I'll forget in five minutes), happy early birthday! Hope you eat lots of delicious food. <3

Thank you, thank you! I was amused that LJ sent me a reminder as well XP

[dark_viaticum]

Hahahaha, why did it send you a reminder, too! XD Happy birthday! You're older (and hopefully the wisdom will offset the old person memory) now!

Probably because I am friends with myself, but, really, you'd think they'd have a line of code for that. BUT WHATEVER. THANKS FOR THE REMINDER, LJ.
