Switching from Delicious to CouchDB

You can also get free hosting at Cloudant.com as well.

I have accounts at both, however at Cloudant they have a pretty nice UI for managing your databases and also give you a slick way to setup rewrite rules. That way your CouchApp can have a nice memorable URL instead of the sometimes hard-to-remember path to the design document.

Edit: You'll need to open up your permissions on your Cloudant DB to replicate his db. They default to all private.

@futuremint Wasn't aware of Cloudant.com, thanks for the tip!

Edit: Did you get replication to cloudant working? I had problems replicating the design document.

@metabrew that's a really interesting proposition. Would be cool to see that done. Personally I haven't really used the social features of Delicious so it isn't something I've thought that much about.

That's a pretty good idea - you could probably recreate the delicious network feed by federating couches. I could replicate my friends' couchdbs into mine in a mesh network topology and create my own network feed.
