Did anyone else lose their delicious tags?

I was writing up a Community Server Byte late on a Friday night while listening to RadioioAcoustic (yeah, I'm still a wild man), when I realized my tags weren't displaying on my delicious bookmarks page sidebar.  Over time I've come to use delicious every day and depend on it.  I bookmark items for Community Server Bytes from blogs and CS Forums over the course of a few days and use those bookmarked items for each new edition, deleting them afterward. 

Being without delicious, or not being able to navigate easily in delicious would be a productivity hit, and not only regarding CS Bytes.  Funny how we come to need services that didn't exist a year or so ago.  I read the delicious FAQ and edited tags to see if the tag list would rebuild as suggested, but still nothing.  So I did two things to remain fully bookmark enabled, I did an export of all of my delicious bookmarks as an .HTML to my PC as a backup and I created an account on Blue Dot, remembering ScottW posting about it a while back.

One thing for sure, I won't be vulnerable to bookmark instability again!

[Update: As of 1:00 PM EST Saturday, tags have reappeared on Delicious.  Someone there must have seen my post. :-)]

Hey, N!  If I were a really good writer you would've known what I was talking about.  I should have included a screenpic or something.  Thanks for the compliment anyway, and for stopping by during your surfing session.
