Signal Boost RE: Delicious

Yahoo Fucks Us Over, and fandom is shocked. In related news, water occasionally falls from the sky. How does it happen? Is it real, or a hoax? Our team of top scientists investigate!

Before anyone panics, let me just reassure everyone that we have no closing dates yet, so there is time to investigate alternatives in a reasonable manner. Also, exporting is possible, so your bookmarks can be preserved. I haven't personally explored any of the alternatives available, but so far there's no DW to Delicious' LJ.

Here you can find a discussion of building a fen friendly alternative site, and here is a petition to Open Source Delicious (for whatever good it will do). What I would really like is for DW to develop a feature that would sub for Delicious. And I want a pony. One that doesn't bite.

I need a general Internet Fuckery tag. And now I have one.

ETA: Watch Yahoo Backpedal! They now are not deleting it, but looking to sell. This is better.

I don't trust the poopyheads, so I'm exporting my bookmarks every couple of days. *glares at Yahoo* Hopefully Diigo will be a good alternative. :\
