Requires: 10.4+ Safari 2.0+

A deal-breaker for many Firefox users considering the switch to Safari is the lack of a del.icio.us plugin to support bookmark management. Many turn to Pukka as an intermediary with the bookmarking service, but its hard not to like the seamless integration offered by the FF plugin.

Now, Safari users can revel in their own del.icio.us goodness, thanks to DeliciousSafari.

DS offers a true replacement for Safari’s bookmark management, and includes such niceties as tag suggestions, favourite tags, and user switching. Users can even override the “add bookmark” keyboard shortcut in favour of del.icio.us bookmarking.

Version 1.7 includes a toolbar bookmarking button, as well as favicons for individual bookmarks.

Changes for 1.7

  • URL icons (favicon) are displayed next to bookmarks
  • Added a toolbar button for saving bookmarks
  • Added spell checking to the Name and Notes fields
  • Fixed tag suggestions on Tiger that stopped working with Delicious.com 2.0
  • Increased maximum length of Notes field to 1000 to take advantage of new maximum allowed by Delicious.com 2.0
  • Bookmark saving is faster (now processed in the background so you don’t have to wait for the save to complete)
  • Safari startup is faster (tag menu is now generated on the fly, rather than when Safari starts)
  • Improved reliability of Import Bookmarks from Safari
  • Fixed several issues that prevented DeliciousSafari from loading on some computers
  • No longer a SIMBL plug-in
  • Added Invalid Credential notification when your Delicious password has changed and needs to be updated in DeliciousSafari
  • Checks for Delicious updates every 15 minutes in case you add Delicious bookmarks through something other than DeliciousSafari
  • Logout really works now (it used to leave your username and password in the keychain)
  • Menu item text is now truncated in the middle if the text is longer than 60 characters
  • DeliciousSafari now opens a Safari window if there isn’t one, rather than doing nothing
