Delicious replacement for Firefox 4
Just a note to point out that Licorize Firefox plugin works perfectly with Firefox 4:
This includes the sidebar with search etc. .
As Licorize does a full import from Delicious, whose plugin seemingly does not work yet with Firefox 4, you could migrate now!
How many people use Licorize daily? And how?
We get between 20 to 50 new users per day, and in total we got now 11300 users, which since the 1st of October (2010) is 66 new users per day on average.
About 7% of these have become real users, which is a quite high conversion rate.
Licorize is not a tool that you necessarily use every day; still, we have “power users”, users that login every day, these are about 200. Users that use Licorize frequently (more than once a week) are now about 800.
Premium users: we have now about 100 premium users. As is common with new online services, the acquisition of premium users is a slow process, but it is getting speed all the time: we started having one Premium user in the first month, then we got one a week, and now are getting a new one almost every day. Our marketing target is to reach 1000 Premium users.
How Licorize is used
Users created 2.807.053 strips in less than six months (!!!!), in decreasing order, mainly bookmarks, status updates (these are imported), remind me later, ideas, to-dos, notes and read items.
Notice the disparity between “remind me later”, about 100.000 items, and “read” items, about 6.000, which shows how hard it is to keep up with intentions 
Analogously and surprisingly there are more ideas (about 30.000) than to-dos (25.000). Anyway. 30.000 ideas is a pretty impressive number – go creative people!
There are now 20.000 projects, which means that about 10.000 projects have been created on top of the default ones. That too is a quite impressive set.
So this is the current state as we are about to reach the sixth month of online presence. We’ll see what happens in the next six months – several improvements in Licorize will be released in the next months.
Licorize updated: “untagged” support and bug fixes
A minor Licorize update is online. Features:
- There is an additional filtering possibility, by “untagged”, which will give you all the strips that are not tagged at all. Of course this filter can be combined with all the others as usual.
- Weekly review can be retweeted.
Bugs fixed:
- Time zone is now supported correctly – this is a quite refined feature, the time zone of your browser will be detected so the same strip seen from London is set as created at 3 p.m., will be seen as created at 6 a.m. local time in Los Angeles.
