You're not the first person who has had this unfortunate outcome. I've brought it up with the support and engineering teams and we're going to throw up more warnings in the next version of Flock that we're working on right now. My apologies that we didn't get it fixed before it happened to you. If you contact del.icio.us support, they may be able to reinstate your bookmarks. A few people in your situation got theirs back this way.

Seems like I did that when I was posting lots of stupid howtos on Zen Cart (the worst piece of crap web app ever). I think I might have one or two that I haven’t made public.

They're there if I need to, and very easy to find with tags. I've gone back many times and found links that I wouldn't have put in my browser bookmarks, because they're not things I want to look at often. I don't have to worry about running out of space or making things cluttered. Just post, tag, and forget (until I want to look at it again). I also like using it just to share things that I find interesting. Social bookmarking web2.0 andallthat. @Henry--There's also <a href="http://dietrich.ganx4.com/foxylicious/" rel="nofollow">a Firefox extension to download your del.icio.us bookmarks into your browser bookmarks</a>.

That's a lot of del.icio.using. Do you really think you'll revisit all those pages? @henry: I think you can export from del.icio.us to an HTML file. It's under "settings". @trey: Yarr.
