a little goes a long way
It’s refreshing when a simple idea translates easily into a practical feature. That’s just what happened with our new “active users” section on pages like /tag/politics and /popular/osx: now when you’re viewing a tag of interest, you can easily see frequent users of that tag who you might want to check out for more juicy, hand-picked links. If you find someone interesting, just add them to your network to keep up. Is this the beginning of something great? Let us know what you think.

very nice feature, it makes del.icio.us even more social!

For now, is this set up to work for a few selected tags only? I’ve tried it on a number of tags (other than ‘politics’) without success.

This is good.
The Randomize button feature is fun too.

It’s a nice feature, but it would be even nicer if you decide to publish the privacy information of each link (export) in your API! Something planned?

Nice feature but it only seems to be visible on the most popular tags. Anything even vaguely niche displays no users which is a drag.

I’ve listened to Todd Mundt (newly hired by Iowa Public Radio) for nine years. I miss him!
My only consolation is that my family lives in Iowa.

I love the feature but please make it work with all tags. That’s where I see its real value in linking people with common interests.
