Del.icio.us bundles

Del.icio.us has a feature in beta that lets you collect a set of your tags into a "bundle" that then shows up at the top of the your personal page. For example, if you declare the tags "parody," "sarcasm" and "puns" to be part of a "humor" bundle, all three of those tags will be listed under a big, bold "Humor" on the right hand side of your del.icio.us home page. You can create a bundle by going to http://del.icio.us/settings/YOURUSERID/bundle.
