Only if I sign out from Diigo, I gain a group meta view of yuppi c's most recent bookmark: http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.diigo.com%2Fpeople%2Fsearch%2Fadvance?gname=Diigo_HQ
If I pay careful attention to alerts/notifications via e-mail, I can discover an alternative view of the bookmark, with a numeric ID in the URL:
http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/977561
— that's a nice view, clean, simple
— focused on a single bookmark :-)
Question
How can I learn the numeric ID of a group bookmark?
Without an alert via e-mail, how else can I regain views such as

No, I don't see the number.
Example: at http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ?type=bookmark I see no way to refer to a particular bookmark. -
Looking inside a cookie makes me dizzy!
Only slightly less dizzying, the multiple steps described at http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Fgroups.diigo.com%2Fgroup%2FDiigo_HQ%2Fcontent%2F978264?tab=comment&gname=Diigo_HQ
What I really want is a simple way to refer to a bookmark.

I opt to stop the script.
I wonder whether this is contributory to nearby http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/1102025 -

Workaround
As in http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/1102025,
1. delete all diigo cookies
2. sign in to Diigo
Post to Diigo: select tag from menu: return: fails to insert selection, tags are lost - 6 views
-
1. Post to Diigo
2. start typing a known tag
3. observe the menu of matching tags
4. key down to reach the tag
5. key return
Expected
Selected tag should be inserted in the Tags field.
Bug
Return key is misinterpreted.
Previously typed tags are lost from the Tags field.
Workaround
6. browse back
7. type tags
8. use the mouse (not the keyboard) to select the tag -
Cross reference
Acceptance of a tag suggestion is misinterpreted - too soon - as a new topic submission
— symptoms are similar; a fix for one may fix the other. -
Here, there is also a WCAG 2.0 minimum Level A conformance issue.

> in settings I should be able to select
> what items I want to be public/private by default
There's a topic,
Diigolet should allow the user to prefer obscurity as a default for new bookmarks (2009-01)
but re http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/1102558 I can't retrieve that topic at the moment.
The underlying issue is that Diigolet defaults to creating a public bookmark whenever you highlight something for the first time. -
> Diigolet defaults to creating a public bookmark
> whenever you highlight something for the first time.
Similarly: if your first action on a page is a comment, or floating note: whilst your comment or note may be private, the bookmark that accompanies its creation is public.
> I don't use Diigo toolbar
If you prefer private by default, try Post to Diigo. Make it your habit to use Post to Diigo before proceeding to draw highlights etc..
Post to Diigo is also public by default, but at least the option to switch to private is clearer than in Diigolet.

As https://wave.google.com/ redirects to https://wave.google.com/wave/
so both URLs should be treated as a home pages; floating notes should be disallowed.
At the moment, there are eight floating, some of which are very obstructive.

AFAICT in Diigo 4.0 beta, handling of
#
character within URLs improves the ability of Diigo to bookmark some types of page. At least:
* compatible with Google Gmail
* partly compatible with Google Wave.

@ Maggie
Please, did that script lead to anything?
(I posted An omnipresent Diigolet, or something like it in December 2008, then stumbled across this 2007 topic whilst answering Diigolet toolbar won't stay put.)
I imagine performance implications, but I thought I'd ask… - ...2 more comments...

> ten screen shots
Three more key points:
In http://www.wuala.com/grahamperrin/Documents/diigo-public/299/004.png the toolbar is hidden, but a Diigo icon continues to interfere with the New message button of OWA. Aiming for a new message too easily reaches something other than the New message button, the toolbar drops down, a zig-zag is required to hide the toolbar for the umpteenth time then return to the New message button.
http://www.wuala.com/grahamperrin/Documents/diigo-public/299/005.png shows the toolbar reappearing too easily when I aim for something other than the OWA area; whilst the toolbar is hidden, the remaining Diigo icon mid-screen is an obstacle that must be carefully steered around.
http://www.wuala.com/grahamperrin/Documents/diigo-public/299/006.png is most interesting. If load of Diigolet is incomplete for some reason, then the Loading Diigolet banner is so obstructive that the user must either close, or navigate away to another page.
Outlook Web Access Basic is clearly too stiff a test, and in those screen shots I ignore the forewarning that Diigolet is not applicable! Still, it's useful for me to see (for the first time) the reasons for lack of support. -
Experimenting with the Diigolet-oriented script for Greasemonkey installed to GreaseKit.
A long list of exclusions may apply.
Exclusions can not prevent Diigolet 4.0b14 from appearing within the preview frame of Diigo Meta. Whether this will be a problem, I'm not sure.

Not all of them ;)
The examples with my name, or my UID number, are not intended for general consumption. (AFAIK the scripts can do no harm, but users will be more interested in their own views of things, than mine :)
I'm discouraging annotated links until after the missing comments issue is addressed.
The meta ones could be useful, if end users understand that they must manually add (for example) their own user name or group name to the tail of the URL. I know of no way to programatically do that sort of stuff with Diigo.
Feel free to experiment!
Thanks again,

Sometimes a person posts to a group by accident. I have done so on a few occasions.
A question, to Diigo: what's the best approach when you wish to decline the posts without banning the member? - ...2 more comments...

Bump (I don't like to ban users, I'd prefer to decline messages). -
> I don't like to ban users, I'd prefer to decline messages
… especially when it appears that the user may be confused by the two very different meanings of
'Diigo Community'.

1. make Diigolet the first (left-most) item in the Bookmarks Bar of Safari
2. key command-1 -
Yes, that's expected.
An always-on approach to current versions of Diigolet may be problematic; please review http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/546692#4.
Ajax: new approaches to e.g. Add Section sometimes fail - 8 views

Twice on Saturday 23rd May, whilst editing a list, attempting to add a section:
Bug
The section entry was prepared (i.e. I typed all required information) but when I clicked the second of the two Add Section buttons, addition was not made.
Workaround
Reload the page, repeat all steps required for addition.
Observation
Screen shots to follow.
I suspect that the text fields and related buttons are available too soon; that they should be not presented until after the page has loaded completely. -

Problems with www.google-analytics.com maybe?
Terribly frustrating, because the page navigation does not draw :(
http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ?type=topic&dm=middle seems to be unaffected.
