I’m curious whether yahoo will buy delicious. It don’t matter if there is one more imperium.

The main page says it all … Yahoo trys to do everything … you can’t do one great thing if you are attempting to do/offer everything!!

Totally agree about this “If you’ve heard about Delicious but never tried it or weren’t quite sure what to make of it, read that article. I think it helps to demystify the cult-like following that many of us are part of.”

I’m not a yahoo fan but I see how this can work. Yahoo is good at building communities and running services based on that. For example there’s google answers vs yahoo answers. Google answers is run by money (and people but mostly money.) Google is based on its page rank system, and yahoo! could incorporate a social bookmark rank to list sites. The site would be more relevant because of the people power involved in uploading site urls to the tagging directory.

Here we go again (December 27 at 7:00 PM). Delicious is down again. Last time was for days. I have never seen this kind of terrible performance with Google and I am in Google constantly. Get your act together Yahoo!!

I…guess I do.

I really should follow your advice re: Hanlon’s Razor, but you have to admit it’s kind of eyerow-raising when the purchase and the power outages seem to hit one after the other.

I should clarify my prior post. I don’t want to switch from Delicious . It’s got a wonderful UI, is easy to use, and integrates well with my web-browsing. I’ve come to rely on it. Is it small wonder that I’m somewhat paranoid about bad things happening to it?

I wrote about this elsewhere:

“In the case of the recent Delicious outages, there was a power loss at the data center. (If you remember back, LiveJournal had a similar problem earlier this year.) And now there’s a failed disk in a one-off piece of specialty hardware that needs to get replaced. Joshua has been dealing with that as best he can and we’re accelerating the process of getting Delicious some new infrastructure.”

“Flickr still gets a massage once in a while too. Such is life. Scaling is hard but growth is good. The outages are becoming less frequent. (It’s not like Google didn’t have problems with Blogger for a while too.)”

So, hopefully you’ll consdier that and “fatal hardware errors” a REALLY good explanation.
