What ever happened to Delicious?
2 comments

It keeps getting sold, reinvented by another company, then sold again. I've had an account for nearly 10 years and it's probably been through 4 or 5 different owners. It reached the point for me where the bookmarklet or extension would keep breaking and since I was using browser syncing, I just never got around the fixing it.
bought by Yahoo, everyone forgot it exists.
That was a long time ago. It has changed hands several times since then.
I used to love delicious. I loved seeing who bookmarked the same thing and following them for more similar content.
Indeed. It was, in a way, quite similar to Pinterest. Shame Yahoo screwed it up :(
