I prefer the del.icio.us links in the main content: I read this and most other sites via Bloglines, which allows you to easily skim over content (i.e. posts) you’re not interested in. I wouldn’t subscribe to a links-only feed unless it had descriptions and opinions about the links provided.

I prefer them in the feed. After the first big gulp of discovering your blog, I only read articles that appear in my RSS reader and pretty much ignore the rest of the columns.

The links you’ve been listing are interesting, but I wouldn’t even see them if they were in a sidebar.

I view the site with an RSS feed in Firefox. I skip over the “links” posts. Find a new place for them- don’t post them as articles. They don’t deserve the same place as the other articles you write.

I don’t mind them in the feed, don’t find them tacky but I usually don’t pay attention to them.

I don’t find link dumps in the content to be tacky, and it makes the feed issue easier.

I like the idea of three feeds. I’ll be reading the combined one if that happens.

put the links in the feed, and give us the option of a links only feed, a content only feed, or a combined feed. make the current fead the combined feed.

see what people like john gruber (daring fireball) and kottke do with this issue.
