I noticed that there were no asterisks by the highlights in my bookmarks list, despite having been told that those highlights were indeed private when I made them. To test, I logged out and checked the URL for one of my lists, and yes, the bookmarks showed me all the supposedly private annotations containing highlights.
I read of at least one other case in this forum, but I haven't seen any solution to it. Is this a bug? Is it the way things are supposed to be? In either case, I'll likely just have to mark all my bookmarks as private until it's fixed.
Here are two things that would make Diigo much more usable for me:
1) Sometimes I bookmark a direct link to a PDF file. In lieu of highlighting (since this is a PDF, not a web page), I will add notes in the form of private comments to that bookmark as I read through the document. Unfortunately, there seems to be no capability to add comments to bookmarks from within a list. Rather, I have to leave the list and display the main bookmarks page, in which all bookmarks include a comment link, which is kind of a bother.
2) Provide a way to open a list of bookmarks with single click from any point on the site. Currently, from the dashboard or from any another list, if I want to view a new list, I have to open up My Lists and then choose a given list from that page -- which is also kind of bother. It'd be nice if there were a dropdown or something that let me switch lists without having to go through the My Lists page.
For some reason, I can no longer access the Diigo site in Opera. I'm using the latest version of Opera on Mac Leopard, the browser is set to accept all cookies, I can access Diigo.com on Firefox and Safari, and the Diigolet toolbar still works. However, I get an error when trying to load Diigo.com. Any suggestions on how to fix the situation?
UPDATE: Apparently, if I tell Opera to identify itself as Firefox, the problem is resolved. Kind of annoying to have to do that, though...
It's not an Opera error message. I get a webpage with the following:
"Sorry for the Inconvenience
