I’ve been posting of all my comments on delicious since March 2009. Just today I hit my 1,000th comment. It was on vivagirlco’s photo, Rock Hard Gym.
Here’s the top 15 places where I have left comments in the past year.

It’s easy
You might think it takes a good amount of time to post these comments to delicious, but it’s really easy. Whenever I’m writing a comment, I just copy the text and hit the delicious button in my Firefox toolbar.
Benefits
Why it’s good to do this.
1) All my comments are archived. That’s kinda nice.
2) My friend’s blogs and photos get extra SEO by having the links on delicious.
3) I reserved my name, @mattmaldre on twitter. But I wasn’t using that account as my main twitter account. I currently tweet under @spudart. I didn’t want @mattmaldre to be released to someone else because I wasn’t using it. So now I have my delicious bookmarks hooked up to automatically post to @mattmaldre. It’s kinda fun to see how the comments function as tweets.
4) If something is good enough to be commented, then it’s also good enough to be bookmarked. Maybe people will find these interesting photos and blog posts on delicious.
I get the Bronze? Sweeeeet! Thanks for all your comments! I’m glad you got the Gold!
Yay! Bronze for you. Actually I don’t think I’d count, since i’m like the judge. So you actually get the silver.
The top 15 places account for 499 of the 1000 comments. How about that? The other half of the 1000 are all more random places that got less than nine comments. Long tail!
I luv Silver! I was hoping to get Silver since I like it much more than Bronze (not a competitive thing, just like Silver). So I’ll take that Silver before you change your mind. Thank you!
And … I think I’ll be trying out delicious! It sounds good! 🙂 Thanks for the tip!

I highly recommend the Delicious add-on for firefox. It makes bookmarking SOOO much easier. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3615
I’m only #4? And #10? 🙁
hey bubs, you are on the list! And actually, you are third, cuz i’m not counting my own blog. So you got the bronze. Get on the medal stand! DO IT.
