deird_ljJust once, I wish a company would explain that they've started using the new system because it's "convenient to us".
Last month it was my rent. I now have to use a new card system - because it's "for YOUR convenience!" - and I still haven't managed to figure out how to use it. What I actually found convenient was the old system, when I could still pay my rent any way I felt like it.
And now? It's Delicious.
I'm a big fan of Delicious tagging, and yesterday I tried setting up a new account, to be used by multiple people.
Unfortunately, I can no longer do that. Why? Because I can only set up an account that uses my Yahoo account and password.
That's right - if I want to have an account that's used by more than one person, I have to give them my Yahoo ID and password, and let them also log into my email.
(Of course, I could technically create a new Yahoo ID and let everyone use that, but... Grargh! Effort! I already have one Yahoo ID I didn't want, just so I can use something else! I don't want a second one!)
So, why have Delicious set it up this way?
Yep, you guessed it:
*glares*
It's NOT convenient. Not for me. Stop telling me it is.

Yep, you guessed it:
