Via tygermama, Yahoo is shutting down Delicious!!!!!!!!!! It's the one webthing other than LJ I do use, depend on, LOVE! This totally sucks.

It's just so integral to my online life. I was actually finding the link to the lodge we stayed at last year in Boulder (UT) when I read about it. All my recipes, and travel research, not to mention all my carefully retagged fic links. I have nearly 2000 links!

Revenge is of the good :)

This is the second post on my flist about this and I've never heard of it.

Here's my cute kitty icon to help make it all better.

Those bastards, I think we should protest this.

It's actually useful! I use it to share recipes with a group of people several times a week.

ailelie's dreamwidth post 'Five Free Alternatives To Delicious'

I've signed up for diigo and started the import of my delicious library but it hasn't finished yet. I'll report when I know more.

And I'm going to sign up for Pinboard, it's not free but I've heard really good things, and now that I'm all paranoid, I want to be backed up in more than one place.

Pinboard sounds like it might be an option.

I've signed up to both pinboard and diigo (nothing like paranoia), importing is slow at the mo (because everyone's doing it) so not sure which I prefer yet... fandom seems to be leaning towards diigo
