"@bpm140 @joshu Really dude? Can't wait to find out how you got the web cast. Whoever it is, gone!"

Unfortunately someone would raise a privacy stink just like they did for the netflix prize data and the aol search data. This is why we can't have nice things.
But Delicious's database is already public (if you take out private fields on the user table and the private links). Even just the links + tags without any user info would rock for semantic Web usage.
Shameless plug: I run http://feedjit.com/ and our core product is very similar to mybloglog, so while it's sad to see what Scott and his team built get cut like this, it opens up opportunity for us and we are very passionate about the space.

This sounds interesting, and I'm starting my winter break at school here.
Cool. Do you have skills? Shoot me an email.

This has to be great news for Pinboard - I'm not sure how much they raise the price with each purchase, but less than 30 minutes later and the current price is already $6.92. Edit: 7 minutes later it's now $6.94
I just paid $7.02, and after that it became $7.03. Now it makes sense.
Office pool: predict the price at GMT 00:00 tonight.

If your security setting blocks using the http://login:pwd@... format, just login to the site and use the link without the login info.
(You can also use wget instead of curl as an alternative.)
I am a heavy del.icio.us user today. What alternative bookmarking site should I switch to that supports tagging?

Now that they're shutting it down, I would love to hear your thoughts as founder on why delicious didn't live up to its potential.
Just because Yahoo's expectation$ weren't met doesn't mean delicious didn't live up to its potential. Many people got accustomed to use it as a search engine and it fulfilled its purpose quite nicely. Imagine if facebook couldn't figure out a way to make money, would it then be considered a failure even though millions of people find it useful?
Depends on who you are. To the investors, that would be a failure. To the people that find it useful, it wouldn't be a failure until it disappeared or otherwise ceased to be of use.
