Wow, nice redesign, btw. I liked your old design too though.
As far as flock, I have to say I am underwhelmed as well. I gave up on it long before I noticed that though. Im glad I didn’t give it the chance…
It should just take system:unfiled bookmarks and not add those until you file them…

Or, better yet, just not collect bookmarks based on visit frequency! :)
I have tons of sites that I go to on a regular basis that I have no desire to bookmark. I usually reserve bookmarks for sites that I won’t remember. But, of course, by keeping your favorite frequent bookmarks private sort of defeats the social nature of del.icio.us. However, for cases such as what I illustrated in the main post, there’s plenty of good reason to be able to turn of automatic del.icio.us posting in the preferences.
Thanks for the design compliment! I thought this was a little more subdued design. The lime green was fun, but not conducive for long term reading… and after all, I want people to stick on the site! :)

Hi Jeremy,
I’ve never heard of the behavior you’re mentioning. In fact, we don’t automatically create bookmarks at all. The most frequently visited sites is simply a query that we run against your history—it’s totally separate from your bookmarks.
Are you sure you didn’t accidently hit the star button when you were on one of those pages? And if you don’t remember, is the star button orange on the pages you’re referring to?
