Google Courts Yahoo Users With New Delicious Bookmarks Importer Tool

The Delicious saga continues. In reaction to what many have thought to be Yahoo's mismanagement of the popular bookmarking service Delicious in the past couple of months, many people have tried to roll their own Delicious importers in hopes of taking advantage of the exodus . Google too has today rolled out a Delicious migration tool for Google Bookmarks, to give people who were scared of the demise of Delicious a safe haven for their meticulously curated links. On background: Yahoo gave many people a scare a couple of months ago when an internal Yahoo slide was leaked, revealing that Yahoo would be sunsetting Delicious, a social bookmarking site with a cult following. It turns out that by "Sunsetting" Yahoo actually meant selling (heh) but while Yahoo has approached numerous people about unloading the property, they still have not found a buyer.
