Delicious acquired Yahoo.

sorry couldn't help myself

wait .. what is so wrong with GrandCentral ? I use that service everyday and I have been very happy with it.

Delicious is owned by Yahoo, not Google.

But c.f. JotSpot nonetheless...

JotSpot got Google Joe Kraus. They're still pretty happy about that one, I think...

Probably true. But they trashed this great little lightweight application platform in the process...

Yahoo acquired del.icio.us

Obviously an error by the poster. On that note, Google has acquired a lot of properties that never really went anywhere afterward.

yea, but those properties weren't that big to begin with. digg has already "gone somewhere"

that's true google does have a nice track record with acquisitions.

wait, I thought, Delicious was purchased by Yahoo...

Oops, I'm totally embarrassed.

(Yahoo got Delicious)
