Delicious Bookmarking Site Not Definitely Going Away

According to an article from DigitalTrends blog Dec 20,
(http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/delicious-wont-be-shut-down-says-yahoo...) says that Yahoo, who owns the bookmarking site clarified ​​​​​​​​​​​​its decision that​​​​​ they haven't decided to shutter the service but in fact will try and sell it. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Apparently, Twitter started overflowing with “Save Delicious” statements because of Yahoo's claim “We continuously evaluate and prioritize our portfolio of products and services, and do plan to shut down some products in the coming months." Yahoo later said it has plans to find a new home for it. Some are saying it’s simply too late for Delicious, and that the fault is Yahoo’s. TechCrunch blogger Jon Orlin, a Yahoo employee for five years, claims he isn’t surprised by the company’s inability to develop Delicious. He questions the strategy or lack there of and said “…when you have ‘the biggest collection of bookmarks in the universe’ in a potentially very social product and you can’t figure out how to run it in a lean, innovative and profitable way, it’s a real sign you are in trouble.” He is also skeptical about any buyer of Delicious having success because it will have "missed the boat for the innovative startup." There are many more Bookmarking products these days which are more popular than they were in 2003 when Delicious debuted, and of course this means it’s worth less and also faces some very able competitors. You may like to try Pinboard and Diigo which most likely has importing features for existing Delicious bookmarks you have. For the near future I think I believe Delicious won't disappear in a poof.
