"Del dot". "No, D-E-L, not Dell, it's not a Dell site". "DEL dot icio dot US". "Right, there is no www and no .com. It's just D E L dot I C I O dot U S. I don't know why they didn't use www or .com, maybe they wanted to seem hyper confusing to new users"
- _delirium 16y agoI kept mistyping it even when I was a semi-frequent user: del.icio.us, deli.cio.us, de.licio.us, del.ici.ous, etc. For some reason I kept doing the latter out of some sort of symmetry (3.3.3), even though obviously I know that .ous isn't a valid TLD. The even dot spacing is one reason I find cr.yp.to easier.
