gbookmark2delicious 2.1 is Out

July 5, 2008 4:41 am

A new version of gbookmark2delicious is out. All the credit goes to Yang Zhang who implemented the new features. Some of them include:

  • Incremental synchronization capability for continuous mirroring of Google Bookmarks onto delicious.
  • Updates to work with current Google Bookmarks and delicious interfaces/formats.
  • Handle throttling and persistent retries for delicious’ REST API.
  • More flexibility via beefed-up CLI frontend (more options, etc.)
  • Local cache of the remotely pulled data.

Moving From Google Bookmarks To del.icio.us

April 28, 2007 4:38 am

I’ve been using Google Bookmarks for a while and was missing a few features which were important to me – sharing, public feeds etc to name a few. I wanted to move my bookmarks to del.cio.us, so I wrote this Python script to do the job.

It’s a command-line program you can run from your desktop. It will grab your Google bookmarks as an RSS feed, which is parsed and posted to del.icio.us through their REST interface.

The code lives here.
