Why is this posted now? Macej bought Delicious a few years ago.
Looks like he'll be putting it back up relatively soon according to what he posted there

#12How relevant would be del.icio.us these days?

#13Why? There's a lot of synchronising apps saving your bookmarks already - this wagon has passed...
For me it was the communal curation effect.
Find someone else with an obscure site or tag and check what else they have saved. It was a deep, deep rabbit hole.

#14Wow, it used to be one of my daily sites to visit. I also created a web called populicio.us with data from del.icio.us.

The new owner is the developer of pinboard.in. The pinboard API was modeled after del.icio.us, so it might just be a data import into pinboard exercise.

#17Aw yeah! I used to use this site all the time, I had quite a lot of bookmarks in here. I think I have an export floating around somewhere but it will be great to see the site up again. I always found the folksonomy model for aggregating and finding content very interesting, unfortunately it seems to have fallen out of fashion as sites like del.icio.us disappeared.
I still use pinboard.in
Just a single guy programming it, and asking a small fee. No ads. No extra stupid features. The web like it should be IMHO.

#18Is this for real; it's like Jesus coming back and he might have my bookmarks, oh Crikes!

Delicious was a social bookmarking site, not a bookmark synchronisation backend.
