YouTube Founders Acquire Delicious From Yahoo

I just discovered this when I tried to bookmark something on Delicious. I am positively surprised that they actually asked me if I wanted to give my personal information to Avos. This is the way it should be.

One critical note though, I went to http://blog.delicious.com/ expecting to read about this, but there is nothing about the acquisition there. If this does not warrant a blog post, what is a blog for?

Looks like they just updated their blog.

I felt the same. the sheen vanished for me when the email contained the text:

"Originating IP address: 127.0.0.1"

yphp has a different function to get the remote address as the normal methods don't work since it is behind a load balancer and using ytunnel (modified stunnel for yahoo).

Guess they forgot to use the proper function :)
