del.icio.us属于Yahoo!了

Joshua在del.icio.us的blog上宣布：

y.ah.oo!

By joshua

We're proud to announce that del.icio.us has joined the Yahoo! family.  Together we'll continue to improve how people discover, remember and share on the Internet, with a big emphasis on the power of community.  We're excited to be working with the Yahoo! Search team - they definitely get social systems and their potential to change the web. (We're also excited to be joining our fraternal twin Flickr!)

We want to thank everyone who has helped us along the way - our employees, our great investors and advisors, and especially our users.  We still want to get your feedback, and we look forward to bringing you new features and more servers in the future.

I look forward to continuing my vision of social and community memory, and taking it to the next level with the del.icio.us community and Yahoo!

从今年3月底，Joshua宣布辞去工作，全职经营del.icio.us开始，到现在半年多的时间，风险投资就成功套现。不过我所关心的del.icio.us自身的商业模式，似乎仍未清晰。所以，卖给Yahoo!可能是一个让这个服务继续下去，又不需要寻求独立商业模式的一种不错的选择。

Yahoo!已经连续收购了包括Flickr、del.icio.us等Web 2.0代表性应用，而且并不像Google那样锋芒毕露，在未来的互联网竞争中，是个不容小视的重要玩家。

Update: Yahoo!搜索的Jeremy Zawodny说，Yahoo!计划给予del.icio.us继续加强这一服务和社区所需的资源、支持和空间，并且，Yahoo!自己的My Web与del.icio.us之间，未来会互相借鉴一些想法。
