It seems a bit crazy that they're shutting down services like delicious and especially Uproar (which is actually in a growth market!).

I'd be shocked if there aren't other tech companies interested in buying the tech, the userbase and the employees (who've just be made redundant presumably at some expense).

What's the justification to shareholders to shutting down as opposed to selling ?

StavrosK, jump on this!

His service is very different, it'd be a shame if the service changed just to get in on this.

Oh ok, I didn't know it was different. I thought it's just a bookmarking app. In any case, importing delicious bookmarks would be helpful to everyone involved.
