But how will I obsessively find new Arthur/Eames stories to read?

Yahoo is shutting down Delicious

Doesn't corporate America understand that fandom has needs?

Woah! I have thousands of bookmarks there that I need to move...somewhere else. Fandom does have needs!!

[scribblinlenore]

It seriously sucks! I hope we can find another central location to do our bookmark sharing.

And not only do I use it to SAVE bookmarks, but that was my main way of finding fics, too. This sucks :/

[hermionemalfoy]

I am with you -- I monitor my delicious "network" more than my flist these days, but no longer. >:( I am trying this out for now...ugh.

[scribblinlenore]

Yes! Delicious is the first place I look for stories in a new fandom. I hope we can find another central location to do our bookmark sharing.

This is so sad. I can save my own bookmarks, but how I find out about all the new great fics out there? If fandom does a mass migration, where do we go?

[scribblinlenore]

It sucks so much. I do hope we can find another central location to do our bookmark sharing. Truly, delicious is as much fandom glue as LJ.

I find out about all the new great fics out there

do you read fandom-specific newsletters?
sure, the editors from most current active fandoms use delicious as well, for making their newsletters, but i am sure, they will find other ways, should it really shut down.
(which btw, I doubt, probably they will make it a freemium model, like basic features are still free, and then they offer paid accounts or something)

LOL, oh Lenore, trust you to make me laugh with this Delicious news reaction.
