[olug] [OT] Delicious Users Get, your marks now

[Mike Hostetler]

I'm not sure I would feel better with that news . . .it seems a bit
vague ("We hope that someone will buy us.") It's best to be proactive
and make a backup.

Once upon a time, my workplace decided to block delicious (it's when
they switched their URL from del.icio.us to delicious.com) so I was
out of luck.  I eventually settled on diigo.com.  Some of their things
are annoying (like the sticky notes) but others are nice (like their
Android app PowerNote).  But it's essentially Delicious

(my employer has since unblocked delicious.com, but I never moved back to it)
