gettin’ taggy wit it
Among the hundreds of millions of bookmarks saved on Delicious are a large number of audio files, collected from across the Web. Rock, jazz, house, spoken word — you name it, you can probably find a link to it somewhere on Delicious. For some time now we’ve supported the streaming of MP3 audio via our “PlayTagger” feature, which is integrated directly into Delicious and also available for adding to your own site.
We are now extending this capability by integrating FoxyPlayer from our friends over at Yahoo! Music. FoxyPlayer is a slick embedded audio player that supports a wider variety of audio formats and interoperates with the popular FoxyTunes add-on for Firefox and Internet Explorer. But perhaps most interestingly for Delicious users, it also turns your audio bookmarks into playlists you can control from your browser. To see it in action, check out some examples:
- http://delicious.com/tag/system:filetype:mp3+jazz+free
- http://delicious.com/tag/system:media:audio+npr
- http://delicious.com/tag/system:media:audio+podcast
By using the “system:media:audio” tag, you can filter most views on Delicious to look for playable audio files. You can even try this on your Network page to see what your friends and contacts have been listening to.
You can read more over at the Yahoo! Music Blog. Give FoxyPlayer a try and let us know what you think!

I’m not sure how you are parsing the page to add these player links but it seems a bit buggy in places. Like e.g. here:
http://delicious.com/tag/.mp3
It puts a play icon everywhere that there is a link with .mp3 in. Some of these of course are not songs.
Other than that it looks like a great addition. Thank you.

It would be better if when you navigate through pages of stored bookmarks, the audio player stayed and the music kept on playing.
Right now if you nav to a next or previous page, the music stops…

I don’t like the fact that they’re called delicious. it makes me hungry…and i have an obesity problem. i just want to tlisten to good music, not think about steak or chicken

All I need is a way to use this delicious media player on my smartphone(Blackberry Curve) and I’ll be set. On that topic, anyone know of a Delicious App for blackberry?
Britta Gustafson | Jun 10 2009 at 1:36 am
Zee1053: There’s one app that I know of: BDelicious — but I haven’t tested it myself. You might also be interested in this guide to using Delicious on your BlackBerry.
