Social Bookmarking seems like a meaningless term in this context. Digg and Delicious have only superficially similar characteristics, uses and communities.

It would be like categorizing MySpace and Yahoo Mail together because they both have messaging features.

Not to mention that both sites have individual, specific reasons for losing traffic: Digg had a gradual decline in quality of posts and a disastrous redesign. It was leaked that Delicious was going to be shut down. It would only be news if they didn't lose traffic.

The interesting thing is, that Delicious is actually better now, because it's so much faster.

As far as I can tell, it does all the same stuff it used to, just quicker.

I agree.

That's what the upvote button is for.

Except, joshu created Delicious, so the fact that he agrees is relevant information.

I agree with this as well.
