deliGoo - Delicious Search Engine
Bookmarking interesting pages with del.icio.us is extremely handy. Not only can you use your bookmarks on any machine that you access, you can also share the bookmarks with your friends and family. Searching can be a bit annoying though.
deliGoo helps you to retrieve the pages you’re looking for, by allowing you to search within the pages itself, rather than just searching by title or tag (or the little description you’ve added). deliGoo describes their service as:
we take the best websites, selected by you and other del.icio.us users,
add a powerful Google search engine and we get a free and easy way to find what we need and exactly where it is!
You basically search the web and restrict the results to only show sites you (or other del.icio.us users) have bookmarked before. Good stuff!
The only downfall is that they want you to install the firefox extension, which is completely unnecessary in my humble opinion. Just go to the search page directly and skip the extension (heck, you can even bookmark that search page in del.icio.us).

Dmitry,
You are right, I didn’t look at the extension too much and was assuming the JavaScript was created on the server side. The del.icio.us JSON feed could be retrieved by the server too, of course.
I’ve updated the post. Sorry for that.

Nice review, Blom, thanks!
But firefox or ie extension is necessary - without it deliGoo can’t work. This is not my whim - add-on software receives a list of links from your bookmarks, which can not be obtained by other means.
