So, I was just reading my classmate, Trish's, blog and she said she was transferring her bookmarks from her browser to Delicious one-by-one, and she wanted to know if anyone had a faster solution. Seemed like there MUST be a faster solution, as even Deliciousitself would realize that this would be a slow and annoying process. So, I checked out the Bookmarks tab in my Firefox browser and then the Delicious page itself, and found a few options.
**I should note, I have not yet actually tried these two methods, but they look like they should be pretty easy to implement.**
1. In Firefox (which is my personal default browser), go to the Bookmarks tab on the top of your Firefox browser. Then, click on the option that says "Get Bookmarks Add-ons." If you scroll down the list of possible add-ons, about the 20th one says it's for Delicious, and will sync your bookmarks between Firefox and Delicious.
2. Go to Delicious, and click on "settings" on the top right of the screen. It will take you to another screen where the second section down is "Bookmarks" and one option is "Import/Upload Bookmarks" which says it will transfer a copy of the bookmarks in your browser.
Hope these work, and that it helps someone! :-)

I did the first when I started with delicious and it worked. I would suggest you clean up your Firefox bookmarks first if you have lots of stuff you never use. The second sounds like it should also work with any browser. I find I have about 10 things in my Bookmark Toolbar in Firefox that I use all the time and everything else is in delicious. In the Toolbar, you can create folders, so you can have dropdown menus with bookmarks in them.
