drunkoffthestarsYou may or may not know (or care), but Delicious is kinda 100% fuxored right now.
PROBLEM 1: I tried to export today, and the dates are all fucked up when I import into Pinboard.
I've successfully managed to pull down the complete list a per the clarification here. \o/
However, when I exported my bookmarks this morning using the export tool, the date information seems to be lost. The correct date is in the XML file, so I know it is in there somewhere, but the exported HTML file from the export tool has everything with a) the same date and b) some format that I don't understand. Does anyone know what this format is, and how to translate between the two?
The current HTML file gives something that looks like this: ADD_DATE="1317140086" and irritatingly don't seem to correspond to actual days when I look at the bookmarks that have the same 'date' and the ones that I actually bookmarked on the same day.
On my export for DELICIOUS IS DYING ROUND 1, the stuff looks the same, but imports a correct date on Pinboard. EX: ADD_DATE="1292375861" imports correctly as 2010.12.15 01:17:41 (though delicious doesn't display the timestamp now, if it even ever did).
I'm a complete novice when it comes to looking at api's and things, and I feel like there's something obvious I'm missing. I don't know if it is at all practical to actually go in and fix this, but I'd like to at least know what it is doing! SOLVED! Sorta. The date number is a decimal integer that represents the number of seconds elapsed since midnight January 1, 1970. *headdesk* I would really like to know who came up with THAT bright idea.
