Delicious is less social and has a different focus, so no, they don't do the same thing.

We thought about building the service directly around Twitter and Facebook like you suggested. We could integrate them so that whenever you post on Howl, it posts to your Twitter/FB through the API. You're right about how its better than twitter, after all, who wants a stinkin shortened bitly link and a description? Give em big images and embedded video! Thanks.

Couple ideas to add:

1) Being able to share links to a group of people. Often i'll share links with coworkers, and it'd be nice to have a record.

2) Custom lists. So I can make shareable lists of related links.

Yeah, definitely look more into unifying and integrating facebook and twitter.

Great ideas - added them to our ideas document. Building out these sort of specific features around link sharing is how we are going to differentiate ourselves from FB, Digg, etc.
