del.icio.us bought by Yahoo! (Download Squad)

Dec 9th 2005 4:56PM One thing that could seperate the fate of Flickr from that of del.icio.us is the fact that Yahoo! understands social bookmarking, as demonstrated by Yahoo!'s My Web 2.0 & My Search. Personally, I would like to see ability to cache web pages with del.icio.us. What del.icio.us users will hate is if in future Yahoo! replaces the simple ad-free UI with a cluttered UI. That will surely destroy del.icio.us. Firstly, bookmarks are more portable than photos. Secondly, community interaction of del.icio.us is much less than Flickr.
