Today we got some great coverage on Wired News!  The full story is here

Wired wrote a piece on "the social bookmarking" showdown and BlinkList was recognized as one of the leaders in the field.  Of course we wish that they would have given BlinkList a 10 out of 10 rating but to be perfectly honest, I would not even rate us that high. 

However, stay tuned for all of the new improvements that we are about to roll out and you will see us getting closer and closer to getting a perfect 10 out of 10. 

Here are a few highlights from the report:

BlinkList

BlinkList will likely appeal to people looking for a way to display bookmarks on MySpace or their blogs. In addition to the standard feature set, the site provides JavaScript widgets that show links and tags on any blog or profile page.

Good: All these sites offer one-click bookmarking, but BlinkList will auto-fill the description field with whatever text you highlight on the bookmarked page. Import bookmarks from a number of competing sites. Plus, you get thumbnails.

Bad: No backend API, limited export options.

Overall: BlinkList has come a long way since its launch in June 2005, and if it continues to add features and gain new users, it could overtake del.icio.us. Read the full review.
