Humans. It's when they are at the lowest point of life that they shred the masquerade of courtesy, it's the time when they are stripped bare to the truest form of themselves. Are they really the nice people you thought them to be? Watch them when they are pressurized, stressed out or provoked.

Night of the Crying Banshee
The night is young and the air is still. But it wasn’t as peaceful as it seemed at the first glance. A little cottage stood eerily in the middle of the untamed forest, showered by shining moonlight that streamed unforgivingly from the darkening space above. There, some odd, bird-like sounds pierced the night. It sounded little bit like an old grumpy witch muffling and shrieking into frenzy, while concocting potions that nobody wants to taste. The wings of the owl ruffled, it sensed the peculiarities in the air, and fled to the east. There, there. At the corner of the shabby room, I laid, chained and bound. Was I too afraid to escape, or was I too much of a coward to even think of escape? I don’t know, as I transfixed at the sight of the looming silhouette. The shadows approached, sinking the air with an unpleasant dampness, sucking away all the remaining sanity of mine. Now I’m decaying, nothing but a mindless zombie without soul.

Death of Delicious
It's death was confirmed by Yahoo. I was surprised to find this out today. In fact, I thought that it was just a joke until I see the official news.
Delicious has always been a great tool for me, who don't really care much about syncing, since I just want to access these bookmarks whenever I needed then. Heck, I don't even bother to sync bookmarks in all the three browsers I'm using.
Taking action to backup my bookmarks now so as not to lose my collections from my intensive surfing habit. The interesting part is perhaps finding out how my surfing patterns changed. Over time, the bookmarks were following similar suit. Nevertheless, I'm still a download freak by the looks of it.
And to think that I was being grateful to this tool when reformatting my laptop. Guess online storage are not that reliable after all, it's best to always have a backup. Always.
To be honest, I was disappointed that it will be gone soon. What if it has more users...will it survive? I know I'm comparing apples and oranges but I really think that delicious is way much useful than facebook. Now imagine this, what if Facebook is announced to be shut down? Probably Facebook fanatics everywhere would be calling for petitions and some companies would be willing to take it over, but I'm digressing....
Fellow delicious users are probably flocking to Diggo right now. I know because I'm one of them.
