At this point, I can't even find my own bookmarks in Delicious anymore. Honest, last night I wanted to check out the link I have saved for Twiddla, so I typed "twiddla" into the search bar at delicious.com. 3 results. None of which were Twiddla. I know it's in there. It had 8000 points last time I checked on the old interface. But searching for a link to the root of a domain by its domain name doesn't appear to be a use case that the new Delicious team thought of. Of course, it doesn't show up when searching for any of the tagnames that I or anybody else gave it either. It used to float around the top of "whiteboard" and "collaboration". Now those terms return a few "stacks" (something I'd never heard of before), none of which contain any of the things that used to be tagged "whiteboard". It's amazing that they could have taken something so simple and good and completely ruined it in so short a time. At this point the best I can hope for is that somebody else has an import tool that will suck my stuff out of it so that I can at least view my own saved bookmarks. Sad.

I just searched for Twiddla from the main page, and it's the top result, with 3717 saves. Tagged with whiteboard. http://delicious.com/search?p=twiddla http://delicious.com/search?p=twiddla Is it possible you bookmarked something more specific, like twiddla.com/specific_page ?

  Could be that it was just plain broken earlier today, rather than broken specifically for me. The entire page previously consisted of the top two sections that you see now (My Links and Stacks), both of which are truncated to 3 entries with little indication that they can be expanded. Previously, you'd see the (now re-existant) 3rd section only. Y'know, a list of bookmarks that match your search.

    I can confirm that the page was broken yesterday and the day before for me. Started working sometime between yesterday AM and this morning.

Yes, the new delicious was extremely frustrating as you could only search via tags. Even the old delicious would allow you to search your bookmarks regardless of tags so it was a loss of functionality. I ended up exporting all my bookmarks to google just so I could search them. That they would relaunch the service with such a crippled search is beyond me.
